Ohio has TWO travel-study scholarship winners!

Darlene Lyon, Retired, Ohio AATG Testing Chair

This year’s National German Exam continued with its secure online testing format, with 261 students from 10 schools around Ohio completing the exam. We had 37 students achieve gold (90% or higher), 48 achieve silver (80-90%), and 45 achieve bronze (70-80%) on this challenging examination. Outstanding achievements!    

This year the Travel Scholarship sponsored by the PAD (Pädagogische Austausch Dienst) in Germany was awarded to TWO students to travel and study in Germany for three weeks this summer.
