Next Generation

For the past couple years UWC in Mostar (my school) has been struggling financially to keep going. For a while last year they didn't even know if there would be the next generation which is mine. However this year things are looking better. Recently however the board visited our school and had a meeting with our administration. One of the things that one of the major board members said that really helped us have hope and faith in the school is that "UWC in Mostar is the cutting edge of UWCs" this really made us realize how even though the school has been struggling to survive it is worth it. Because of being in a post conflict area and that the school gives full scholarships to all students from Bosnia and Herzegovina to keep a large local population in the school it has been struggling but those are also the reasons that make it amazing and unique.

The reason The Board was here was to decide if there would be new students next year and if so how many. Naturally this caused some suspense in the school; anticipation the outcome of the meeting which would determine the future of the school. After some time so anticipation it was shared that next generation we would have 100 new students (twice the number of students in my generation) which returns the number of students to the normal and optimum number for UWCs!!!!!!
