May 16 - RYE info session at NHS - 11:10 am- 12:10 pm
Inbounds, outbounds, rebounds, Rotex - all are invited to attend an info session during flex in the auditorium. Please spread the word and invite 9th-11th grade students to learn about Rotary Youth Exchange. Rotarians Jill Fisher and Jesse Steed will present long term and short term exchange programs. Rotary Youth Exchange is a live-changing year. Just ask Audrey, Alison, Raine, or Hannah.
On Friday, May 16, these four Rotex (previous exchange students) will share their exciting stories during a presentation at Northfield High School. Current 9th-11th grade students are invited to attend during flex to hear about how they may immerse themselves in a foreign culture for a short term summer program or a full year on Rotary Youth Exchange.
The Rotary Club of Northfield has had a dynamic Youth Exchange program since 1969 sending 300+ students outbound to dozens of countries. We are proud of our students and in the way that this community has supported them. We are firm believers that we are changing lives and creating world peace through this wonderful program. We look forward to sending more 15-19 year olds in the future and being hosts to students from around the world that come to live with us.
Rotary Youth Exchange is more than part of our story. It is our legacy.
