German Exchange Students Arrive in Nashville!





On Sunday evening (4-10-11), a group of fifteen Germans and their accompanying teachers arrived in Nashville after several days in New York. Here on an exchange through the GAPP- German American Partnership Program, the students are staying with host families/students at MBA, Harpeth Hall, Brentwood High, and Centennial High. Now in its sixth year at MBA, the GAPP exchange brings students from Wiesbaden, Germany to Nashville each spring.




Three MBA students are hosting this year. Freshman Gaines Garrett is hosting Simon Weidmann, and seniors Jack Keller and Daniel Rundberg are hosting Marc Rodewyck and Patrick Wallisch, respectively.


During their two week stay in Nashville, the Germans will attend school, participate in sports, visit downtown Nashville and the Wildhorse Saloon, canoe on the Harpeth River, enjoy the MBA talent show, and build lifelong friendships!


Special thanks to all host families, MBA teachers of the exchange students, and the MBA administration for supporting the German exchange program.


Herzlich Willkommen in Nashville, Jungs!
