十大彩票平台 students left for Melbourne, Australia, on Saturday, while visiting students from La Havre and Havana are making the most of their time in WNY. On the weekend, they enjoyed skiing and skating. Today, they visited City Hall and OLV Basilica and enjoyed lunch at a Buffalo favorite, TED’S Hot Dogs. |
The exchange experiences are integral to fulfilling one of the values from our strategic plan that shapes our community, informs our decisions, and guides our actions. Global Perspective: We know that whether in school, in Buffalo, or in the world, we must engage as empathetic and informed citizens. |
