Dasha, a Russian study abroad student who spent five months attending our school departed from Yonezawa City on August 21st and returned to Russia from Narita Airport on August 22nd.

This was her message.（by Russian language）

Hello! My name is Dasha, I’m a student at Kunori High School.
I’m an exchange student who came here for 5 months on the AFS exchange program.
Today is my last day at this wonderful school.
My school life was very interesting, and I had a lot of fun here.
I met many people, and I didn’t want to leave this lovely school.
The teachers here are so friendly. I want to thank them for all their hard work.
I hope everyone keeps smiling and doing their best.
The students were also very kind, always supportive and helpful.
I made many friends in this school.

Goodbye

Thank you for these happy times!
Good luck to you all. I hope your dreams come true and that we will meet again!!
