Cross Cultural Opportunity: Host a Foreign Exchange Student!

We are looking for a loving family to host a girl from Vietnam who is very excited to attend Northridge High School starting in August 2020. We need to find a placement for her before her visa can be processed.

The host family receives a 500$ monthly stipend, and should provide three meals a day, a bedroom, and a place to study. The student will come with their own health insurance as well as spending money.

It is a wonderful way to bring a great cultural exchange into your own family. Please contact Sarah Lavy, the local coordinator, if you are interested. She can be reached at 574-822 5321 and by email at lavys@mcsin-k12.org. For more information, visit the website below:

Thanks so much for your interest in taking a student into your home and family!

2019-2020 Transportation Requests

Transportation Request Form - 2019-2020 School Year

Jr./Sr. Transportation Request Form - 2019-2020 School Year

Due to the recent trend of most upperclassmen driving themselves, or riding with parents or friends, to the high school, all Juniors and Seniors for the 2019-2020 school year will be dropped from the bus transportation list. Bus transportation will still be available to every student but if your student is a junior or senior, and you wish to take advantage of this, you will need to fill out, date, sign and return this form as soon as possible. If your student will not require bus transportation, you need to do nothing.
