Alumni Spotlight: Great Student Ambassador

Meet
Bahar Mammetgurbanova – EducationUSA Turkmenistan cohort alumna and American Corner volunteer, who is currently on FLEX program, studying in 12th grade at Stanley-Boyd high school, Wisconsin. Bahar was spotlighted at the Stanley-Boyd high school official page for her successful academic studies and for being a great ambassador of her home country – Turkmenistan. She has done a remarkable job studying at the US high school, being an active Stanley-Boyd Basketball JV player, and representing her country through over 10 cultural events that had more than 200 visitors in attendance. She is finishing her high school program in May 21, 2020 and is very excited for a new journey when returning back home.
