Exchange Students Killed in Airplane Crash by Victoria Biro*

Sixteen German students were sent on an exchange program to spain and had the time of their lives, just like they do every year.  They, and two teachers, plummeted from the sky hours before they were supposed to land back in Germany.  Their families patiently waited for them to arrive, not knowing they were crashed in France.  Soon, French officials announced every passenger dead.
All the students from the school showed their love for them and their families by placing candles all around the school.
It is very sad that after having an amazing experience that could have changed their whole lives, they died.  This really puts us in the right state of mind, and that you never know whats going to happen. These students were just excited to see their families, not knowing they would never see the again.  Life can be taken away from us at any time, which is very scary.  It is good to know that they had fun in their last moments of living.
