Host Families
Thanks to our partnership with Canada Homestay Network, a non-profit organization that specializes in matching students and host families, students can spend one trimester, two trimesters or an entire school year at Lycée international de Calgary.
Students are placed with an English-speaking host family, allowing them to improve their English language skills while experiencing Canadian culture firsthand.
The fees outlined above include room and board, tuition fees and all school supplies.
Every student placed with a host family is treated as a member of the family. Host families will invite students to take part in regular family activities such as visits to the local park, a trip to the cinema, dining out and family get-togethers and celebrations (i.e. Thanksgiving).
Please be assured that host families are screened for compatibility and safety to ensure the best match between each student and the family assigned to them. The activities of normal, everyday life are discussed with the family prior to confirming a place for the student.
