Cowman International School was thrilled that one of its students, Maxiane Petit-Papa, was offered a full scholarship to Oxford Royale Academy's world-renowned Oxford Summer School, allowing her to experience life in Oxford for two fantastic weeks in the summer of 2018. In addition to classes with Oxford Royale Academy's tutors, Maxiane enjoyed a wide range of activities in Oxford as well as excursions further afield to other UK cities including London, and she made friends for life with students from all over the world. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was provided by ORA's regional scholarship program, offering students from certain countries the chance to attend an ORA program on a full scholarship.

​

The Cowman staff was excited, but not surprised, to hear that Maxiane finished at the top of her classes at Oxford. We have no doubt that she represented Jesus, Haiti, her family and Cowman School well during her time overseas. 

​

If you get a chance, ask Maxiane about her time at Oxford and the new friendships she created, and ask her to share some of her pictures. We know she will be excited to do so!
