We are so excited to have the opportunity to host an exchange student this year! Beverly is 15 years old and will be enrolled as a Sophomore at Tremont High School!
She will arrive in Tremont sometime around the middle of August, but travel information is not confirmed yet.
Beverly is from China ... Guangzhou, Guangdong to be exact. We visited Guangzhou during our trip to China and enjoyed our time there.
I'm posting a few pics of Beverly on the side bar of this blog, and I'll be adding new posts with information and pictures about Tremont so she can get to know more about us and share this blog with her family.
Take a minute to leave a comment here and help us welcome Beverly!
From Guangzhou to Tremont!
Follow Beverly's journey from China to the United States as she joins our family in Tremont for the 2008-09 school year. We'll use this blog to help our friends and family get to know her, and to keep her family updated on what is happening in Tremont!

We're so excited to meet you! I'm Drew (the oldest) ... and I'm sure you'll have plenty of chances to laugh at my pitiful mandarin when I start class in the fall! I just graduated high school, so hopefully I can help out with anything that you're worried about!
