American Education Partners is pleased to be able to offer international students with the opportunity to spend a semester at several top public high schools starting in January 2011.
Each of our partner public high schools are located in very safe, smaller towns in Northwestern Connecticut, less than 2 hours from New York City. Connecticut public high schools are widely recognized for their high academic standards and student achievements. Each of our partner public high schools offers a wide range of Advanced Placement (AP) and Honors classes to qualified students. Additionally, students will be able to join a number of student clubs and sports that are offered at each school.
Students enrolling in these schools will live in dormitory-style housing in charming, renovated houses. The dormitory will be supervised by a full-time live-in house parent who will prepare 3 home-cooked meals each day, provide transportation to and from school each day, homework assistance and more.
Students will enroll in these programs on the F-1 visa program which will allow them the option of continuing their high school education in the USA and entering college or university without having to return to their country to apply for a different visa.
