PAX welcomes host families of all kinds who would like to share their heart, home and culture with a young person from Ukraine, Spain, Germany, Indonesia, China or any of our international students from over 70 countries. All PAX students are between the ages of 15 and 18, speak English, have full insurance coverage and come with their own spending money- PAX students arrive in August. Full year students depart at the end of the school year and semester students depart in January.
Host families come in all shapes and sizes- Young couples, single parents and retirees are all welcome to apply as hosts. Host families provide students with a bed, a quiet place to study (separate bedroom not required), meals, and a warm, supportive environment - Private rooms are not required. Families can expect students to help with household chores and participate in family activities. This is a wonderful chance to make a lifelong friend and help a young person learn more about America. Promote peace and understanding for the world's future leaders, both American and foreign.
