You’ve met exchange students before, but, have you ever thought about how they come to your school? PAX Program of Academic Exchange brings them! PAX is a nonprofit foreign exchange program bringing international high school students to homes and communities across the US. PAX has helped thousands of families gain a new "son" or "daughter" over the years and in each case, a terrific teen's dream has come true. Today, you can contribute to this wonderful story by hosting an exchange student too! Students begin their program in Aug./Sept. 2024, and they can't wait to hear which family has selected them and find out about their American high school. Great family-student matches result when there are shared interests, outlooks, senses of humor, etc. You get to choose your new family member by reading their profile: you choose age, sex, interests, plus more and a letter to their future host family. Interested? Search amazing students here www.pax.org/finder Ready to jump on this opportunity? Apply here http://hub.pax.org Can’t host, but want to help bring culture and diversity to your school? Help us find an American host family for one of our incoming exchange students, and you can earn $300. Through August 31, 2024, refer a family at www.pax.org/refer-families If that new family goes on to host a PAX student for the 2024/25 program, we'll thank you with $300. If they host two students, that's $600. Hosting options include a short-term “welcome” of 6-8 weeks beginning in Aug./Sept. or even the entire school year.

Welcome Back, Tigers! 🐅
