Today was our first day in South high school. I woke up at 7:20 in the morning and got dressed. Then I had an awesome american breakfast with fried egg, potatoes and bacon. After that my host mother drove Leif and me to the school. There we met Mr. French and all our classmates that participated in the school exchange. In school Mr. French told us about the schedules in US schools and the rest of the school life here. We got introduced by a tour from the students taking german class from Mr. French. The school is a really big building and it is really complex to know where is what. Another weird thing was that there were securitys all over the school. That is because there we're school shootings, where people we're killed in the USA. The second lesson we spent meeting the principles of south high school and taking photos with them. After that we had a talk to Mr. French again about our questions abilout the school, while each one of us had a small talk to our teachers. As we finished that we went to the cafeteria to get lunch. Then we joined our hosts to their normal school subjects. First I was at the Pre-calculus (which is some difficult and high level math). There the students got some tests back they wrote a week ago. After that we did some worksheets. During lessons there is a difference to german schools too, because there are more students in the classes, so it's louder and harder to concentrate too. After Pre-calculus, I had Goverment/Economics, where we had a simulation of the race for president. That was really interesting. After that we switched rooms again were we did the yearbook. There I met a few of the German students, whose hosts went there too. There the American students took photos for the yearbook. After that school was over and everyone went home with their host families again. That's how we spent our first day at South high.
