While students may utilize their summer vacation to recline on the beach or juggle a summer job, magnet senior Pamela Musungu and magnet junior Maggie Driemeyer spent six weeks overseas immersing themselves in a new culture. Their journeys into the beautiful landscapes of India and Latvia respectively stem from their involvement with the U.S. Department of State’s National Security Language Initiative for Youth (NSLI-Y), a program dedicated to advancing the language learning capabilities of American teenagers.
