He was met by his American parents, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Hoffman, daughter, Barbara, and son, Eddie. Annop, quickly nicknamed Andy by local students, is quiet but quick to make Hiends. When school began he enrolled in English, social science courses, and typing. Andy was an active participant in Student Council and a regular attendant of school activities. During second semester Andy spoke before several community organizations about his home country. The end of the year brought mixed emotions to Andy--he regretted leaving America, but happily anticipated reunion with family and friends.

Extra cash was earned to buy helpers at the annual Slave Auction in support of next year's AFS program. Three years of hard work paid off as six students were initiated into National Honor Society.
