The Orinda/Tabor Sister City Foundation and the Tabor Czech Club reviewed 12 applicants and selected Marie Ruzickova as the new student. Ruzickova will come to Orinda and spend the fall semester studying at Miramonte High School.

The foundation is now actively looking for a host family with whom Ruzickova can live. The students in this program usually arrive the first week of August and stay until the first week of February the following year, depending on the end of the semester.

Ruzickova is a member of the student parliament at her school. She likes to watch debates, interviews and read the news. She also enjoys photography, drawing and painting. Ruzickova is very much into the Scout program and would love to be part of a Girl Scout troop in Orinda.

It has been four years since the Orinda/Tabor Sister City Foundation hosted a female student. Roxana Ray came for the 2013-14 Miramonte High School semester.
