International Student Homestay Opportunity

The Rocky Mountain International Student Program offers international high school students the opportunity to study for a half or full academic year while living with a Canadian host family. Students range between 14 to 17 years of age and go through a rigorous application process.

Two 15 year old boys, from Germany and Spain, are arriving in September. As a supplement to their school studies they are also interested in learning about fishing and archery. In addition to providing a home to an international student, host families receive $1100/ months to help cover costs of food.

To the extent you would be interested in hosting student, or finding out more about the program, please contact Alysha O’Hearn, the homestay coordinator at Alysha.Ohearn@sd6.bc.ca
