Homecoming week was exciting for the Spanish exchange students. Their stay in Minnesota included visits to the Mall of America, apple orchards, and pumpkin patches. Spanish exchange student Cristina Montero, staying with junior Neerja Thakkar said, “My favorite things that I have done are shopping in Albertville and Mall of America and staying with Neerja’s family.” Montero is from Colegio Malvar in Madrid, Spain. With the experience of a St. Paul Academy and Summit School homecoming, Montero said that Dress Like Your Friend Day was her favorite.

The exchange students arrived on Sept. 14 and left on Sept. 29.
