Winter International Scholar Program 2018
Did You Know?!
OSOTA has a thriving international program. Scholars from different countries have been attending our school for three solid academic years, and we continue to expand welcoming international students, as well as providing mission-based abroad opportunities for high school scholars such as the recent summer missions trip to Central America, El Salvador.
This coming winter season, we will be continuing our short-term international exchange program with students from South Korea.
For our South Korean students, we would like to invite all interested families to apply to be a host family for this group of children in grades 2nd - 7th. It is a hands-on, 7-week, educational and cultural experience that will leave lasting memories for everyone involved!
Winter Schooling Program 2018
Country: South Korea
Duration: January 4th (arrival date) - February 22 (departure date) in 2018 (7 WKS)

This is a wonderful opportunity for the students from overseas, and also for our scholars and families.
What is the Winter Schooling Program?
This program is created for international students to experience the American schooling system, in the most hands-on way possible. One School partners with EDUUS, a Korean educational agency. International exchange students attend classes, participate in activities and do the work that is required of them during this time. Students also get to experience family life, after school and weekend culture, and American family values.
