International Student Exchange (ISE)

Heartland Region -

Serving Families throughout the Midwest

Host Families Needed!

NOTE: Host families needed now for Fall students - the 2009/2010 School  Year 

The ISE volunteer host families provide room and board, love and support to the students.  The students bring spending money for school expenses, extra-cirricular activities, etc.  In addition, students come with a health insurance policy so there is no expense for the host family for doctor, pharmacy or hospital bills. 

Our students arrive expecting to learn about the American way of life and anxious to teach you about their own culture.  For the exchange students from all around the world - this is the experience of a lifetime! 

Who makes a good host family?

Families with high school age children

Families with middle school age children

Families with younger children

Families with no children (yet)

Empty Nesters

Single Parents

Home School Families (your student would go to the local public school (or in some cases private school).  Some of my home school families make the student's country part of their cirriculum for the school year).
