II. EXCHANGE PROGRAM CURRENTLY BEING EXPLORED:
Colegios Laude – Spain – EXCHANGE PROGRAM www.colegioslaude.com
This program has two schools in Madrid.
Students interested in an exchange program during the school year in Madrid are encouraged to speak to the Director of Foreign Exchange Programs directly as many options are in the development stage at this time. A visit abroad during the school year would involve a month-long immersion program, living with a family, attending school and participating in all daily and weekend actitivities with the host student and family. This program would then entail reciprocal arrangements with the visiting student.
