Ellie Van Zanten wins coveted German Award

The American Association of Teachers of German nationally awards 39 summer study trips of 3.5 weeks in Germany. Winners are chosen based on scores above the 90th percentile from the National German Exam, an extensive application process, and the daunting experience of an interview in German before 4 college professors. Please join us in congratulating Glenbrook South Junior Ellie Van Zanten for winning a coveted study trip award to Germany this summer. Ellie will experience full German immersion, including living with a German family, and attending a German school. Congratulations, Ellie!
