'Muehlhoefer resides in HP through year q Senior Andreas Muehlhoefer, Highland Park’s AFS student this year, discovered a different part of the world from his native Germany. Andreas, a Senior play crew member, also sang in the Lads and Lassies choir second semester. In addition, he manag- ed the varsity tennis team since, accor- ding to UIL rules, he is ineligible to play in matches. Spending the year with Junior Josh Larson and his family, Andreas liked the “competitiveness” of school, but wish- ed there was more free time after school. Also, he would have enjoyed eating his dinner in the middle of the day, as Germans do. Asked about a major difference bet- ween the United States and his native country, he replied, “The people are different. In Germany, the young peo- ple feel much more responsibility for their environment.” The AFS Summer exchange program claimed two HP students. Senior Daphne Glover spent time in Japan while Junior Amy Watson travelled to Quebec. Melinda Means, a 1982 graduate, went to Germany for the school year. All this attention: Andreas is introduced as the AFS student at the first home game along with other school officers. An All-American game: Andreas participates in HP tennis. A slice of life: Andreas speaks in German to his Biology project, the pig.
