Greetings from our East Dubuque School to Zelenogorsk.  We have included some

pictures of the students involved with your wonderful project.

You will also find a brief introduction from each student.

We all visited your website and learned about some of the other projects that you

developed.  Our class also did some research on Zelenogorsk and found where you are

located. You have a beautiful town and your pictures show your pride.

Thank you for including us to be a part of this wonderful project of sharing ideas and

experiences. Remember to visit our school website  http://www.edbqhs.org/.

Our classes are in the high school link.

Hi, my name is Chris Rath. Life here in East Dubuque, Illinois USA is pretty simple, but

unique. East Dubuque is a small town of about 2,000 people. Across the Mississippi

River, about one mile away, there is a city of about 55,000 people. The climate here in

this part of America gets very cold in the winter months and very hot in the summer

months. Our high school here in East Dubuque is also pretty small, it only has about 190

teenagers. We only offer a few sports like, football, basketball, volleyball, and baseball. I

am very interested on how people live all over the world, and how your life is different

than ours.

Hello, my name is Janna Slaats. I live in East Dubuque, Illinois. I have lived here all my life.

I am now 16 years of age, and a junior at East Dubuque High School. Which in my class

there are about 52 people. In school the classes that I take are English, Computers,

Foods, Health, Gym, History. The entire school goes from 7:30am to 2:30pm Monday

through Friday. I have a job and work at business called The Arena. I also baby-sit most

of the time. The other part of the day I spend hanging out with friends. In this town there is

not really much to do. Well thank you for including us in your project I’m having a lot of

fun.
Hi , My name is Chris Otto. I live in East Dubuque, Illinois in the United States. East

Dubuque is kind of small but it’s right across the way of Dubuque, Iowa, a much larger

city. I am a senior at East Dubuque High School. This project should be a fun one

because we get to work with people from a different country. I wonder right now how

you are going to translate this because you’re writing and language is obviously very

different from ours. It must be difficult to learn English, I know if I can’t even learn Spanish

I could never learn Russian. Well I hope this has been helpful in getting to know us and I

hope you have a good day.
