Foreign Exchange Students Foreign Exchange Students

Ever thought about hosting a student from another country? We have students looking for a home. We LOVE having exchange students at LHS they bring culture and a lovely perspective to our classes. If you are interested, reach out to: janicerake@gmail.com


Here is one student that is ready to be a WILDCAT!


Maelle, 16, is a delightful exchange student from a small village in Switzerland who excels in aerial arts/circus festival activities. She needs a loving host family (August-May) to achieve her dream of attending an American high school. Maelle has been involved with a community circus festival for many years doing aerial arts, rope jumping and training children. She also enjoys card/board games, knitting, baking, painting, reading, dance, music, outdoor activities and sports (tennis, volleyball, horse riding, skiing, sledding). She has an 11 year old brother who has severe health issues and is a loving big sister with lots of empathy and maturity. She has a 3.3 gpa and excellent English. Her dad is French so she bring French culture as well!
