Mr. Wilson's US History class was very fortunate to have Sylvia Schneider, mother of German exchange student Emilia, stop by and about her time as a young woman growing up in East Germany. It was a unique opportunity to hear Cold War era experiences from such a different perspective. She shared stories of her time growing up in East Germany until the age of 12 when her family was allowed to move to West Germany. She shared the emotions that were felt in 1989 when the wall came down and Germany began the path to unification. She describes that as a young girl her world was all she knew and she remembers communities of people really sharing and working together. She also recognized the many things the "West" had to offer once she was able to experience that. She concluded with thoughts on the current conflict in Eastern Europe and also shared some mindfulness techniques related to her chosen field of work today. We are very appreciative for Miss Schneider taking her time to visit with us and share her experiences and lessons.
