    Re: Anyone teaching in Europe? Willing to answer questions?
    Posted by Cecil on 7/30/08

    Hi, Val!

    First, congratulations!

    You are going to love where you are!

    Patch is actually in Stuttgart, which is in the DoDDS-E Heidelberg
    district. The school you're going to is on Patch Barracks in
    Stuttgart, hence the name.

    Thanks for the advice! And please keep in touch. If there's
    anything I can do to help you (questions about the area, etc.), just
    let me know.
