One would not imagine that North Buncombe High School would be a vehicle by which many international students would connect - but it is.
Not too long ago, NBHS started a student exchange program with Denmark (I wrote about it here). And this week, we hosted a group of students from Australia.
These kids play on a club basketball team, and are traveling around the US playing high school teams. They played here on Wednesday night. I was lucky enough to visit with these kids on Thursday morning, during which time we had a wonderful chat about Australian culture, American misconceptions, and what surprised them most about their time here.
The ties that bind.
