Arlington Community Education

Open your home and heart to a high school student from Japan for a week this spring. 2024 marks the 40th anniversary of the sister city relationship between Arlington and Nagaokakyo, Japan. The Arlington-Nagaokakyo Student Exchange Program, now in its 21st year, is seeking local families to host visiting Japanese students. This is a unique opportunity to learn about a new culture while sharing your own traditions and building international friendships. Attend an information session to find out more about the program and get all the details to help you decide if this amazing cultural exchange experience is right for your family. Sign up for the waitlist, and you will be notified when the details are finalized.
