The Brits are HERE – and welcomed by their R-MA hosts

The American/British Exchange Program with Randolph-Macon Academy and The Queen Elizabeth’s Grammar School has officially begun.  After a three-year hiatus, R-MA officials welcomed students from Ashbourne, Derbyshire back on American soil Saturday evening.

Over the next ten days, these students will visit host American homes, stay in R-MA dormitories, audit classes with their R-MA host students, visit the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, UDVAR-Hazy Air and Space Museum, Skyline Drive, Luray Caverns, visit the White House and the US Capitol, as well as various local Front Royal attractions.

If you encounter these students on our streets or other locations, R-MA and Royal Examiner ask that you make them feel welcome.
