Holy Trinity Parish School would like to become involved in hosting cultural exchange students here at Holy Trinity. We are currently working with Faces & Our Cultures, a program pairing students from schools in Guatemala to families and schools in the United States. Families would host their exchange students from around Oct. 19 to Dec. 19, 2014 (the Guatemalan school vacation) and need to have a child in 6th-8th grade here at Holy Trinity Parish School.
Students are paired with a classmate of their same age and gender. Exchange students are encouraged to participate in the same after-school activities as their host student, as well as attend and participate in family celebrations and religious activities to learn more about our American culture. In order to participate, we’ll need at least 3-4 families with students in grades 6-8 volunteer to host one student. More information is available at http://facesandcultures.com/carta-de-bienvenida/?lang=en. If after reviewing the expectations for a host family, you find yourself interested, please contact Ashley Davenport, adavenport@ht-school.org by Friday, April 25 to learn more.
