7th grader Emma Damschroder goes to Wantz Middle School and has been interviewed and selected as a People to People Ambassador to "Experience Europe."

Emma is looking for sponsors to help defray the cost of her trip. A website to advertise her experience and keep family/friends updated has been set up here. What is unique is that Emma, as well as other family members, is dyslexic. She has spent 3 years in private tutoring and has had to overcome many obstacles and work very hard in school to be on honor roll.

She is well liked by her peers as well as her teachers and enjoys school. Her dad is a local minister in Miamisburg, while her mother is an Intervention Specialist in Fairborn City Schools. They all would appreciate the support of Miamisburgians in Emma's quest to be a proud reflection of her community and her hometown.

Let's all pitch in. She'll even send us postcards! Visit her website here.
