Our students here have the opportunity to participate in a program of study during the mornings – four
daily Spanish lessons -- along with incredible activity options during the afternoons, such as: excursions,
activities, sports, cultural visits, beach and special permission for night time, off-campus excursions.
The Program:
Arrival:
Someone from the school will meet students at the airport. Students may arrive a few days before starting classes,
or just the weekend before. They will stay with their host family from the time they arrive.
Accommodations and rules:
Students will stay with host families and will be placed according to their preferences. They can choose to be placed
with another student or to be placed by themselves. On weekend tours, students will stay in hotels and share rooms with
students of the same gender.
Drinking alcohol:
Participating students will NOT be allowed to drink alcohol at any time.
Night curfew:
Students are NOT allowed to go out at night by themselves after 8:00 PM. When they are not with the chaperone, they will
stay with their host family.
Spanish Classes:
Students will have four hours of Spanish classes, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
