Stephan Lewark, son of Mr. and Mrs. Siegfriend Lewark, was an ex- change student this year from Hanover, West Germany. While stay- ing in America, Stephan lived with Mr. and Mrs. Bo Braze. Their daughter Shannon is a student at Brewer and Scott, a graduate in 1984, lived with Stephan's family in West Germany. Stephan is planning a career in electronics or politics. He found the United States very different from West Germany. The level of educa- tion in Germany is far ahead of that in the United States. In Germany, courses like calculus, electronics, and foreign language are taught at the junior high level. The music is also different: David Bowie is perhaps the only common ground.

Lunch-Time Bo Alexander is only one of the many students who enjoy the food served in the cafeteria every day. Two words can describe the cafeteria workers at Brewer High School: hardworking and dedicated. Every day these ladies work hard to prepare a meal the students will en- joy. They devote many hours in ser- vice to the school. Not only do they work hard to prepare the meals, they also serve the meal with something the students do not have to pay for, a smile!
