Cody Mickelson

Educators in North Dakota, including one from Jamestown, recently talked politics with another nation's leaders, toured behind-the-scenes at worldwide companies and saw a city that rose from ashes more than 60 plus years ago all during a trip to Germany. Cody Mickelson, a German teacher at Jamestown High School, was part of a trip from June 26 to July 9 offered by Atlantik-Brücke and the North Dakota School Boards Association. Atlantik-Brücke, or Atlantic Bridge, is an association dedicated to strengthening German-American relations in the political, economic and cultural areas, Mickelson said.
