Addison Trail to host students from Triggiano, Italy, as part of Sister Cities program

From Oct. 11 to 18, Addison Trail will host 15 students and their teacher and principal from Il Cartesio High School in Triggiano, Italy, as part of the Addison-Triggiano Sister Cities program.

During their time at Addison Trail, the students from Triggiano will enjoy a Columbus Day Parade, take field trips to Chicago, meet officials from the Village of Addison and experience what it’s like to be a student at Addison Trail.

Addison Trail students will host the Italian students in their home and will travel to Triggiano, Rome, Florence and Venice in March 2014 as part of the exchange program. This is the second time Addison Trail students will participate in the program.
