We Have Contact!
After one week and three days, Anna, our student for next year finally emailed us. It turns out she was on a class trip to England and she didn’t have internet access there. Those Europeans have it good over there - we only get class trips to Southern California or Yosemite. The Washington D.C. and New York trips cost almost $2,000 each for us NorCal kids (not that I went to either).
So in her e-mail, Anna mentioned the lovely SJ weather she will be enjoying, asked if I have any questions about Germany, and requested photos of her new home and so on which we will of course oblige her with. For now though, I sent off a gigantic e-mail about introducing myself and Lynbrook. First on the agenda is making sure she gets good classes for next year. I’m not quite sure how much privacy I should give Anna on this blog, so if any of you readers know blog etiquette or have an opinion on that, insight would be greatly appreciated!
I think a good general rule of thumb would be to get the other person’s permission. You could tell her about your blog and ask her if she minds if you write about your interaction.
