Conrad Ojesjo takes a break from his studies to enjoy a Dr. Pep-per. FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENTS: Conrad Ojesjo. Sweden; Chandani Abayaratna, Sri Lanka. Chandani Abayaratna receives a little help from Mr. Buford Williams in her computer class. This was the first year that a computer class had been offered at KCHS. Exchange Students Enhance KCHS When a person can't travel the world for themselves what alternative do they have? They could always get involved with one of the two foreign exchange students that came to KCHS. Chandani Abayaratna. an American Field Service student came to Kimball from the city of Kandy. Sri Lanka to live with the Bob Mueller family. School life in America was a new experience for her. While in Sri Lanka she attended an all-girl school in which the teachers were the ones that moved from class to class instead of the students. I like KCHS; classes are easier compared to ours. The people are really friendly. We don't graduate from our school so I look forward to graduation here. Here there are many different classes such as glassblowing, and photography. Conrad Ojesjo was an American Scandinavian exchange student from Linkoping. Sweden. His host family was the Floyd Barrett's. Unlike in Sweden, he had the opportunity to pick what subjects he wanted. Conrad compared the schools by saying. You go to school for nine years in a classroom situation studying basically the same subject. For the next two to four years you choose the career you would like to enter and then study courses in that general direction. During this time, students go to a place called the gymnasium which is equal to a junior college in America, to study and prepare for their career. Steak was Conrad's favorite food. Exchanging ideas and learning about different cultures helped make the world smaller for the Longhorns who knew these students.
