On Friday, Madame Kuhnel's classes participated in her annual 8th grade authentic French cheese tasting experience! The students sampled five different varieties of cheese along with sliced baguette, jam, chocolate croissants and traditional French beverages. "The students were very adventurous and most of them tried all the different cheeses. They were so appreciative of this event and I was happy to expose them to this cultural experience," said Madame Kuhnel.
