Intercultural Groups:

  • Go to school Monday through Thursday at 8am (except on holidays) and then have activities.

What is expected of the host families?

As an Internexus Provo host family, you should prepare to adhere to the following guidelines:

  • We require that you provide breakfast and dinner for the students, and would love for them to eat meals with you.
  • They need a room provided with separate beds.
  • The Intensive students need their own room, not shared with another student.
  • If necessary, provide a ride to and from school.

We want you to include them when you do family activities, and incorporate them into your home like another family member. We ask that you not speak other languages while they are in the home, as part of the program is to immerse them into English to boost their learning.

We hope to have you as part of our Internexus family!
