WHERE ARE THE STUDENTS FROM?
PAX exchange students come from over 70 countries around the world.
We like to place students that are from one of two scholarship programs, YES (KENNEDY-LUGAR YOUTH EXCHANGE AND STUDY)
and the FLEX (FUTURE LEADERS EXCHANGE) Programs.
WHAT ARE THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF PAX EXCHANGE STUDENTS?
Our high school exchange students are expected to adapt to their host family's lifestyle, respect and uphold house rules, participate in family activities, and pitch in with chores. Being an exchange student is like joining a family—along with the rewards come responsibilities.
WHAT DO HOST FAMILIES PROVIDE FOR EXCHANGE STUDENTS?
Host families provide three quality meals a day, a place to sleep and study, and transportation to and from school activities. Host families also provide a warm, supportive environment in which their exchange student can learn and grow.
