Local families sought for exchange students American Scandinavian Student Exchange Programs (ASSE) is seeking local families to host Scandinavian, French, Spanish, German, Dutch, British, Swiss, Japanese and Australian girls and boys, 15 to 18 years of age, coming to this area for the upcoming high school year. These personable and academically select foreign ex- change students are bright, curi- ous and anxious to learn about this country through living as part of a family, attending high school and sharing their own culture and language with their newly adopted American family. The students are fluent in Eng- lish and are sponsored by ASSE, a non-profit, public benefit organi- zation, affiliated with the Swedish and Finnish Departments of Edu- cation and cooperating with the Canadian Provincial Ministries of Education. The exchange students arrive from their home country shortly before school begins in late August and return at the end of the school year in June. Each ASSE student is fully insured, brings his or her own personal spending money and expects to bear his or her share of household responsibilities, as well as being included in normal family activities and lifestyle. ASSE is also seeking local high school students to become ASSE exchange students abroad.
