As part of the exchange program between China and United States, a group of Chinese high school students will be visiting U-Prep February 13th – 20th, 2015. They are going to attend classes, have interactions with our students and bring in new ideas and perspectives to our community.

U-Prep is in need of host families to host 26 visiting Chinese students. A host family is a vital part of the cultural exchange. By opening your home and heart to a student from overseas, you and your family will gain a new global perspective, many memories, and, quite possibly, a new family member for life. We hope a host family can help host 1 or 2 students for about 8 days (from the evening of Friday, Feb. 13th to the morning of Saturday, Feb. 21st, 2015). These students will follow the school schedule of your child, so there is no extra burden on your part to send them to school. To show their appreciation, Chinese students have prepared lovely gifts from China for the family. As part of the exchange, students of the host families are invited to go for a FREE summer camp in China, for which all costs in China are paid. The only cost on the student’s part, the round trip ticket, will also be subsidized by the exchange program.

Thank you in advance for your hospitality. If you’d like to help or have any questions, please feel free to contact Dr. Cheng, Coordinator of Confucius Classroom at U-Prep, at bcheng@suhsd.net.
