Exchange program seeks host families

International Student Exchange seeks host families for several exchange students who have been accepted to attend Tyburn Academy for the 2007-08 school year. Students from several countries, including Vietnam, Korea and Macau are interested in attending the Catholic high school.

Host families do not have to be Catholic and need not have school-age children; singles and retired couples are welcome. The students are supervised throughout the year by an ISE representative.

Host families do not need to live in the Auburn School District. Families are expected to provide only room and board.

Students arrive in late August and stay through graduation next June. For further information, contact ISE representative Barbara Murphy at 253-9558 or Tyburn Academy at 252-2937.
