Last Day to Sign Up to be a Host Family



PeopleLink still needs several families, especially those with boys, who would be interested in hosting a group of Japanese high school students from the Happy Science Academy from 3/22 through 3/28. This school sends students every March and they are a joy to have; my 7th grader still keeps in touch with the students we have hosted. Each family needs to provide meals and a place to sleep; a separate room is not necessary. We are looking for families who can host 2 students for that time period, receiving a stipend of $30/day. During the day the students will be shadowing ARHS students, going to Boston and learning about life in Amherst. It's a great opportunity for both the students and Amherst families. For more information please contact Diane Caraker at Dianec711@comcast.net.   Becky's mom, 7th grade, Teacher Guide, PeopleLink (nonprofit) exchange program.)
