June 27th to July 25th! :)Come enjoy a fun filled summer where you will be meeting lots of new people and making many lasting friendships here in San Diego and from Spain. Summer is fast approaching and so is the time that 30 sweet 14 to 17 year olds will be arriving from Spain.<br />
We have fun filled activities planned twice a week during their stay. We also make sure that if your working, that your student will have things to do. We invite you to come on the activities with us.<br />
This is a great opportunity to practice your Spanish!! (They speak English though).<br />
Don't worry that your going on vacation, either you can take them with you or we will place them in another home while your gone. Families that are hosting this year have plans to take the student with them on vacation. <br />
If you have small children, the students will be a big brother or sister to them but always a friend to you! You don't have to have children to enjoy this rich and rewarding experience. <br />
They can share a room and they have their own spending money. <br />
<br />
<br />
Come join in on the fun!<br />

There are 30 students in all. 22 students are without homes!! We have both girls and boys 14 to 17 years old and all their profiles are already in. This is a very flexible program and can accommodate most schedules. If your going on vacation, you may take them with you or we will place them in another home while your gone. They have beach days on tuesdays, (please join us!) and Disneyland, Universal Studios, and LA sightseeing on thursdays mostly. Other than that, they will do what you do!. If your working or busy or your children are in school, no worries, as we will be sure to keep your student busy for you.<br />
We are looking forward to hearing from you!<br />

They will be brought by bus to a local, convenient location near Poway where host families can pick them up. The students will return to Spain on July 23,2012.

During their stay, the students will have two pre-planned activities a week. They will be visiting Disneyland, Universal Studios, and also a sightseeing trip to LA. They will be riding the waves at our local sunny beaches on other days. Tickets for the students are provided, however if your family would like to join us, we may be able to get group discount tickets to these amusement parks. Two potluck picnics are also planned - a welcome gathering at the beginning of the program and a farewell picnic at the end.

Hosting a student is an incredible experience! STEP provides invaluable life experiences to the students and host families alike. The program promotes cultural awareness to students coming to the United States and to the families hosting them. Students get to discover the United States through meaningful experiences staying with an American family. Many lifelong friendships are formed. </div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Mrs. Lorene http://www.blogger.com/profile/02331693768596107249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-98898195867170560.post-46563908673258697462012-03-26T16:03:00.001-07:002012-04-14T08:11:06.018-07:00Mrs. Lorene http://www.blogger.com/profile/02331693768596107249noreply@blogger.com
