🇩🇪🥨 Opening Doors to Global Connections!
Shaker Middle School students welcomed 19 students from Goslar, Germany, for a two-week homestay and a day of learning together at school.
Students participated in small-group Q&A sessions, recorded interviews in German and English, and of course, enjoyed some very large German pretzels together!
It’s a wonderful opportunity to practice language skills, share cultures, make new friends, and learn from one another.
Fun fact: German and Swiss German immigrants helped introduce pretzels to North America in the late 18th century!
Opening doors to explore the world, one connection at a time! 🌎

Opening Doors to Creativity and Endless Possibilities! 🚪

Your continued support of the Shaker Schools Foundation helps open doors to hands-on learning experiences like this one!

In Mr. Bishko’s 8th grade Food Science classes, students researched ingredients, compared recipes, designed their own brands and labels, and fermented their own green beans and carrots. 🥕🌱

Your generosity helps make endless possibilities possible for Shaker students. Thank you!
