CDL is a private international school in Versoix. There are 2200 students--preschool to graduation--of 120 different nationalities. I definitely feel like a minority--there aren't that many Americans, and even though everyone can speak English, most people don't. Although I like most things about CDL so far, I'm definitely not a big fan of their organization. I was somehow not put on any attendence list yesterday, so I spent a lot of the day waiting to get a schedule... I did meet quite a few people, but the school itself isn't super new student oriented, so the other new kids and I have had to fend for ourselves a lot in figuring out where to go and such.
Other than that, it seems like it will be a good year--once everything gets sorted out. I'm pretty excited about my classes, even though signing up for four AP's at this school is supposed to be a death sentence of some sort. I get to take AP English Lit, AP European History, AP Calculus, AP Spanish Language, French 1, and Philosophy... I'm pretty sure every one of my teachers is a different nationality--American, British, German, Mexican, French, and I'm-not-sure-what. I gotta say, that's pretty cool. Now all I have to do is find a ballet school, and I'll be set.
Wow, it sounds amazing! Hope you get all the enrollment stuff sorted and that the 4 AP classes turn out to be managable!
ReplyDeleteYay for your first day. Ooohhh...a Philosophy class. I love it! I hope you find a ballet studio soon. (Do you need an English speaking teacher?)
