Happy New School Year & Welcome Pietra!

Today we begin the 2014-15 School Year and there is much excitement and energy in the school. We'd like to extend a special welcome to our exchange student, Pietra S. who is going to be with us this semester. Pietra is from Telemaco Borba in the Brazilian state of Parana. She is 15 years old. This is the first time that Pietra has been in Texas but she lived in California last semester and she has visited many other US States with her parents. Pietra tells us that she is looking forward to her time at UA, to perfecting her English and also to welcoming her fellow Brazilians when they come from our sister school next month. She already likes many things about UA especially the "nice and helpful" girls. Pietra's favorite American food is "cheeseburgers."  Pietra misses her family and her pets (2 dogs and 3 turtles) in Brazil but she is very happy to be a student at Ursuline Dallas. Welcome Pietra!
