Host families are invited to participate with the students in most scheduled activities. However, the program has been designed to support the busy family who cannot always accompany the students each day. Our educational program is usually 3 to 4 weeks in duration. Because students need time to relax from their busy schedules, go shopping, or write letters home, two afternoons a week are free. Weekends are generally free time to spend with host families.
Students arrive with spending money for gifts and entertainment.
They are fully insured under their own and WISE s insurance policy. The students are generally very considerate and appreciative of their situation here and participate as much as possible in host family activities. Click to contact WISE about this or other programs.
