A KEY TO UNDERSTANDING EXCHANGE STUDENTS Ignacio (Iggy) Lazaro of Madrid, Spain, finds school at QHS to be very different from that at home. The most obvious differences are that students stay in one class in Spain and the teachers come to them. Students cannot choose their own subjects, and classes are also more difficult there. Iggy likes the kids here at QHS. He says that they are nice and he gets along well with them, although he maintains that ways of thinking are different. Drafting is his favorite class, and speech is the most difficult, but he likes it. He says that he has learned things he never realized before. Mr. Cook, Mr. Veysey, and Mrs. Rice, when she’s in a good mood, are his favorite teachers. Iggy hopes to improve his English during his year- long stay and wishes to know many people who have a different way of life. Also, he thinks he will know more places and cities. Iggy enjoys people and has the best times when with friends, all of whom he will miss when he returns home. Marie Gimenez, a junior, sees many differences between her school in Santa Fe, Argentina, and Quincy. Her school starts at 7:30 a.m. and gets out at 1:00 p.m. She only spends two days a week in gym. Another aspect that is different is people in her school treat teachers with more respect. Her favorite classes here are speech, typing, and gym, and in her school at home they are history and art. Marie states that people here are more open and friendly with each other. Also, most people in her school do not have girlfriends and boyfriends; they are just friends. Marie plans on visiting Washington, D.C., New York City, and Chicago during her stay in the United States. She is living with Michelle McClughen, but when she leaves in July she says she will leave with memories of good friends. 6
