France-Arizona Youth Exchange with Terre des Langues
Participate in the 2025 High School Student Exchange Program this Summer!

Our partnership with the French linguistic company Terre des Langues is renewed for 2025. Together, we’re organizing a unique France-Arizona exchange program specifically designed for high-school students.
 

This program is divided into two enriching parts:

1) In June, your family will have the opportunity to host a French student, introducing them to the beauty of our wonderful state. (Tentative Dates: June 7 to June 28) 

2) In July, it’s YOUR high school student’s turn to embark on an adventure to France, immersing themselves in a new culture and broadening their horizons. (Tentative dates: June 28 to July 16)
 

This exchange program is more than just a trip; it’s a chance to extend your family and provide your children with an unforgettable international experience.
 

We encourage you to reach out to us for the application package. Please note that there are only 9 spots available, so don’t delay! Please get in touch with us:
