Cultivating Culture: Ledyard's Student Exchange Program

Year after year, Ledyard families open their hearts and homes to high school students from a foreign country.

PAX (Program of Academic Exchange) offers your family the opportunity to share your daily life with an international exchange student for a semester or school year.  

Hosting a student is a terrific way to learn more about another country and culture. Everyday activities will take on a new meaning when you share them with a student who is eager to discover the American way of life. PAX is committed to providing quality educational exchanges for students and families.

We have three exchange students this school year and we are looking for new host families for the 2013-2014 school year.

If you would like more information on hosting, please contact Debbie Evans at 860-464-9600 ext.144 or at Devans@ledyard.net or 860-464-9480.

You may also go directly to www.pax.org  to learn more about the hosting experience and request a host family application.
