What started out as curiosity for Turlock High School student Elisha Coleman resulted in the trip of a lifetime when he and 13 other THS students embarked on a journey across the globe to Germany this summer, attending classes, sightseeing and forming new friendships. “I saw the posters and thought, ‘That looks fun,’” said Coleman. The four-week trip came as the second half of the German American Partnership program – an exchange program approved by both countries’ governments and school districts – which saw 15 students and two teachers from Germany call Turlock home earlier in the year.
