Through its efforts to foster cultural awareness by promoting the foreign exchange program, Auburn High school has earned the distinction of Education First Foundation for Foreign Study “School of the Year” Award.

AHS has hosted students from countries such as Korea, Italy, Germany, Greenland, and Brazil to name a few. The school received a commemorative plaque, which is on display in the office, for this accomplishment.

This year, EF Foundation honored 32 American high schools with the School of the Year Award, chosen from more than 2,000 schools. Schools were nominated by their local coordinators or program support manager based on their commitment to foreign exchange and the support they have provided EF Foundation exchange students.

AHS foreign-exchange program
written by citizen, June 10, 2008

Congratulations to AHS, MCPS,and the sponsoring parents/guardians/host families of the visiting exchange students. The students have excelled and contributed much, from academic and sports excellence to exemplary citizenship. Primarily, it has been a wonderful experience for the other students. These students are ambassadors of their countries (I believe: China, Italy, Germany; some of the countries this year)
