USCCD welcomes Nicaragua Summer Exchange
The US Center for Citizen Diplomacy welcomes Nicaragua Summer Exchange as its newest member. The Nicaragua Summer Exchange program offers high school students the opportunity to study abroad in Granada, Nicaragua and provides them with an enriching cultural experience.
Here's a brief description from their website about what this experience offers:
The Nicaragua High School Summer Exchange is a chartered member of the Nicaragua Ministry of Education and since 1998, a member of the Wisconsin Public Schools International Programs. Currently, through the success of our dynamic "Spanish Through Leadership" philosophy, we enroll students east-to west, Boston to San Francisco, north to south, Toronto to Tallahassee! Whether it be sports, the arts, academics, or music and dance, we provide rewarding opportunities for high school Spanish students to experience the warm embrace of Central America's most historic colonial high school, Granada, Nicaragua.
Make sure to check out their website and reserve your spot. All you have to do is request a DVD from their website, fill out an application and you will have your spot reserved.
In order to be eligible to apply you need to be between 15 and 18 years of age and you need to have had at least one year of high school Spanish. If you have more questions, check out their website.
There will be two sessions over the summer, both four weeks long. The first session will go from June 15th to July 12th and the second session will go from July 13th to August 9th.
