Foreign Exchange Students
It is the policy of the Board to recognize the benefits from non-immigrant students. The Board does not, however, sponsor student foreign exchange programs. The Charter School does not provide any financial contribution to the student. The Board assumes no responsibility or control over items such as travel, living accommodations, funding, insurance, etc., which remain the responsibility of the sponsor and/or student.
J-1 visa holders (students sponsored by an approved foreign exchange organization) are eligible to attend the Charter School, subject to all applicable School enrollment and admission policies, Idaho law and the Charter. Any sponsoring organization must have a local representative, be a nonprofit organization, and be approved by the Council on Standards for International Education Travel. F-1 visa holders (individual foreign students sponsored by relatives or friends) may not attend the School.
The Board reserves the right to withdraw approval and regulate the number of students participating.
