LIS had a great visit this morning by some very special guests.  Mrs. Kim Vinch, teacher at BFS and her children, Rebecca (nursing student at William Patterson University) and Jared (5th grader at LIS) spoke with our students this morning about their summer trip to Ghana in West Africa.  The Vinchs spoke about their experiences living with the people of Ghana for three weeks and their visitations to West African Schools.    All of the students were amazed by the events of the trip and learned a lot about a culture that is different from their own.  One thing that the students all remembered related to the sports that the students in Ghana played in comparison to the students here in Lawrence.  It was a great experience for all involved.  We thank Mrs. Vinch, Rebecca, and Jared for taking the time to share their amazing journey with us.
