The trip home from his spring semester was a long one for Newton's Jeff Arellano, who graduated from Wichita State University this spring. His trip involved flying across the Atlantic Ocean after student teaching in Germany.
"I learned a lot," Arellano said. "It opened my eyes to the different range of students and different lifestyles of students."
Arellano chose to spend a semester of student teaching abroad, getting experience in both the elementary and high school settings during the week and traveling through Europe on the weekends.
