School District of Prairie Farm

Admission of Foreign Exchange Students

Students who participate in foreign exchange programs may attend the School District of Prairie Farm provided they are assigned to families who are legal residents of the District, the sponsoring organization is approved by the Board and established requirements are met. Each sponsoring organization shall be reviewed annually for approval.

The Board reserves the right to limit the total number of foreign exchange students for the year and the number from each country.

The goal of allowing students who participate in foreign exchange programs to attend school in the District is to provide for a mutual, beneficial exchange between the students, their sponsoring organization and the School District of Prairie Farm.

 Foreign exchange students are expected to make a contribution to the community by sharing their culture.

Classes for a foreign exchange student shall be selected cooperatively by the counselor and exchange student, keeping in mind the student's obligation to learn about American culture and the student's career and educational goals.
