Host Families Sought for International Exchange High School Students
International exchange high school students are coming to study in Putnam County during the 2007-08 school year. These students will integrate themselves into a Putnam County family with the goal of experiencing American culture as an American high school student does. In turn they will provide insight into their own culture. STS Foundation, a non profit student exchange organization, is proud to help facilitate these relationships. They have been doing so for the past 20 years and look forward to finding new host families in Putnam County and connecting them with exchange students.
Students this year include Csaba; he is an 18-year-old boy from Hungary who loves playing basketball; he plays on a club team in Hungary and dreams of playing in the US. He is very excited to learn about American culture. Anna is a 16- year-old girl from Sweden who loves playing soccer on her club team. She also enjoys playing the clarinet. She says it is her dream to come to America and she is very excited to learn the American way of life. They are both excellent students and will have their own spending money and health insurance. The host family provides a separate bed, family meals and a safe environment.
If your family would be interested in being a host family please call Sean at 1-800-522- 4678 or email at seant@stsfoundation.org and visit www.stsfoundation.org.
