Editors note: There are three foreign exchange students in the Clearbrook-Gonvick School system. They were each sent questions to be answered. We will be putting in one per week.
Welcome to the new students in the district for this year.

Tell us about your family at home and yourself.
In Italy, my family and I travel a lot. We go to other countries like France, Spain, and Greece. I live with my mom, dad, and my older brother when he is home from college. I love playing club volleyball and hanging out with friends in Italy.
What country are you from and give some details about your home city.
I am from Belluno, Italy. It is a town in northern Italy with about 37,000 people. The town is surrounded by mountains.

Master Studio
What classes are you taking at C-G?
I am taking English, art, Forestry, senior skills (a shop class), chemistry, US History, and Algebra 2.
What do you find interesting or different at C-G.
Everything is very different. The classrooms have tables instead of desks sometimes, there are lockers in the hallways, and this school has sports. The food is also very different.

I am in volleyball and plan on also being in basketball and track.
Do you have a favorite or not so favorite food that you have found here?
My favorite food here so far is barbecues/sloppy joes. My least favorite is Dunkers at school.

I would like to attend University to possibly become a doctor.
