Visiting students, ages 15-18, from around the world, including Germany, Spain, Switzerland, and Thailand, are seeking host families in and around Maple Lake for the upcoming 2014-2015 academic school year. Host families are needed for the fall semester and full school year.
Host families (traditional families, singles, empty nesters, etc.) serve as mentors and a home base for their student. Visiting students participate as active members of the family and integrate into their host’s daily routines and traditions just like any other family member. Hosting an international student is a great way to explore a new culture and promote a sense of lifelong learning and adventure.
“Every year, Minnesota plays host to talented, top-of-their-class students with the lifelong dream of studying in America,” said Dawn Green, iE-USA’s Area Director. “Minnesota’s spirit of hospitality and focus on academic enrichment makes it an ideal environment to develop cultural exchange and promote international diplomacy on a local level.”
