For the second time in school history, Kenny students are joined in their classrooms and hallways by students visiting all the way from Speyer, Germany.

For the past three years, Kenny has been part of the German American Partnership Program (GAPP), which aims to provide cultural education among its international students, according to the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.

With this being the second year of having exchange students in school, Kenny hopes to expand the school’s cultural education.

On March 15, 11 German Club members were joined by exchange partners from Speyer, and for the next two weeks, will show them daily American and Kenny life.

The exchange students will remain with their partners until March 27, when they will depart after morning classes.
