Housing needed for Spanish Consular Classroom Assistant's
Published on Aug 17, 2020 13:30
Would
you enjoy sharing your home with our incoming Spanish Consular
Classroom Assistant beginning in late September? Each year, the Spanish
government makes it possible for Millis to host a language and cultural
assistant through their international exchange program. The consular
assistant arrives in late September and stays until the end of the
school year, sharing the Spanish language and culture with students in
our immersion and non-immersion classes on the elementary and secondary
level while also learning about the culture of the United States through
both the classroom and homestay experiences. This year Millis Public
Schools will have three-four Spanish assistants so we are looking for THREE -FOUR
host families!! Please let us know if you are interested! If you have a
preference of gender, we may be able to accommodate
that. A number of Millis families have shared their homes with consular
assistants over the past decade; all that is required is a private
bedroom for the student, breakfast and dinner, and wireless access. The
family would also be responsible for picking up the student at Logan
Airport in late September.The homestay is designed as a cultural
exchange experience and does not include childcare or household
responsibilities. The district provides bus transportation to school
each day and lunch in one of our cafeterias. Students hold medical
insurance and have had a full series of vaccinations. All assistants are
non-smoking. They are eager to share their language and culture with a
family!
Please contact the district's main office at 508-376-7000 X 619 if you would be interested in hosting this coming school year.
