💜 Host Families Make Our Program Possible 💜

One of the most special parts of the Spanish Immersion experience is our incredible interns — and behind every intern is a generous host family willing to open their home and their hearts.

A current host family shared what the experience has been like for them:
✨ “We love Sara’s positive presence in our home. She is so kind and joyful and truly loves our kids. She plays games, goofs around with them, and has had such a positive influence on our entire household.”

They were also surprised by how naturally everything fell into place:
✨ “Logistics like rides and cooking were much easier than we expected. And the friendship that’s formed has been a wonderful surprise - it feels less like hosting and more like gaining a new family member.”

Their advice for families considering hosting?
✨ “Go for it. Hosting an intern is truly helpful to the school, the program, and the interns themselves. It’s a meaningful way to give back and show gratitude for the education our kids receive.”

Interested in learning more about hosting an intern for the school year? 📧 Email us at [email protected] - we’d love to visit with you!
