Types of Exchanges:

Long Term:  The exchange student travels abroad and attends school in the host country for a full year and will have opportunities to participate in camps, meetings, and trips.  They will be immersed in the language & culture of their host country.  The student ambassador will be hosted by a local Rotary Club who will supervise the one to three host families they will live with.
