Foreign Exchange students
With a small senior class next year, it would be a good opportunity to have foreign exchange students attend our school. Here is a list of expectations for host families. If you know of someone in the school district interested in hosting, have them contact the school.
THE HOST FAMILY OF A FOREIGN EXCHANGE STUDENT IS EXPECTED TO:
* Be a welcoming and open-minded family
* Treat their student as a member of the family, not as a guest
* Share established reasonable family rules and chores
* Guide their student in learning throughout the experience
* Talk often with the student’s counselor at school
* Discuss any questions and concerns with the program representative
* Share American culture and lifestyle with their student
* Show an interest in learning about their student’s culture
* Include their student in family and community activities
