During the school year, Ed lettered in basketball and track. He was chosen Student of the Month by the faculty, received the Work Horse Award in FFA, and he participated in the Junior and Senior play. As Ed's year was drawing to a close and he would be leaving the United States to go to Europe after school was out, he was asked to recall a few of his favorite memories and to sum up his past year. He stated, The people here are the friendliest peo- ple in the world. His fondest memory was being with his friends in school. He thought that his stay here was a really good experience because he was able to learn the language and the American way of life. The most outstanding events during his stay were all the good and bad experiences that he shared with his friends. Ed's future plans include going to college in Brazll to study agriculture and then to find a job. Someday he would like to return to the United States for a visit. Although Ed is leaving, he will not forget the many memories of all the good times that he and the students of SMHS shared!!! NOR WILL WE FORGET YOU ED! Our Exchange Student 7
