Rotary High School Student Foreign Youth Exchange |
It is the goal of Rotary International to enable students to advance their education and world understanding. This is done by allowing a student the opportunity to attend a secondary school system in a foreign country. At the same time, the student will be living with one or more host families in their adopted land under the sponsorship of a host Rotary Club while they study abroad.
Each year northwest New Jersey's Rotary International District 7470 offers both a year long-term school program (full school or calendar year) and a 3 to 6 week short-term cultural youth exchange program with several countries for teenagers from local NJ high schools. The countries we exchange with are generally the same from year to year, but we do add and remove exchanges as we are a flexible organization and like to develop new friendships throughout the world. |
