A homestay student lives, eats, and shares the majoritiy of their time outside school hours with the hosts and their family.

The student is invited to participate in Holiday festivities and family events (weddings, birthdays, etc.). The student must abide by the host family's house rules such as; chores to perform, curfews, use of internet, telephone, guest visits, smoking and drinking.
