French exchange

Ramsey High School is buzzing with excitement as we welcome ten exchange students and one chaperone from France from April 17th to May 1st! This enriching cultural exchange promises to be an unforgettable experience for both our visiting guests and our Ramsey community.

  • The exchange students have been successfully matched with Ramsey families, providing them with an immersive experience of American life while sharing their own French culture and traditions.

  • Students spend two weeks with host families, shadowing classes, and exploring NYC and beaches of NJ. They also partake in various cultural outings such as a visit to the Statue of Liberty, a Yankee game, and attending music concerts.

Why it matters: Through the French exchange student program, organized by FACES and RHS, we continue our tradition of fostering global connections and promoting cultural understanding.

What they're saying:

ā€œThis exchange not only offers a unique opportunity for cultural exchange but also promotes language learning and international friendship.
