This year, Delphi is blessed to be the host school of Michelle Perler from Switzerland. Though she comes from a different culture and background than many of the other students here, she has decided to spend the 2017 school year with us. Let’s make sure we give her a warm Oracle welcome; but in case you haven’t met her yet, here’s a little bit about her.
