PHS is part of the German-American Partnership Program (GAPP), sponsored by the U.S. and German governments. We’re seeking families to host a German exchange student March 18–29 (about 11 days).

Hosting is easy—just a place to sleep (shared room / air mattress okay!) and inclusion in daily family life, meals, school, and activities. Basically, they do what you do. They have their own money and full medical, liability, and travel insurances. In exchange, your Panther becomes eligible for our partially grant-funded Germany trip next June (last trip ≈ $2,000 all-inclusive). Your student also receives recognition and graduation cords for hosting, and they're eligible to go on all of our field trips here in Illinois with the GAPP group.

Now in its third year, GAPP creates lasting friendships, global connections, and future professional networks. Host families make this program possible, so please consider hosting this March! This program just can't function without our PHS families. Contact Mr. Dail at tdail@panaschools.com if you're interested. I'm really looking forward to hearing from you!
