Host Family Program
Being a Host Family is a wonderful opportunity to support international students during their time at Horizon Christian School. All host families should be active Christian families and support the mission to share the love of Jesus to an international student. Host families receive a monthly stipend of $800 to help defray the cost of providing a room, food and transportation to school for the international student.
Having an international student live in your home is the converging of two different cultures and can be a very rewarding experience not only for the student but for our host families as well. Your family will learn about a new culture while you are also sharing our culture, thereby creating wonderful memories through the year. To help prepare you for this awesome experience, as well as provide a few expectations, please review our Host Family Guidelines.
Any family that is interested in becoming a host family will need to complete a legal background check, have a home inspection and provide references to ensure that they will be a suitable family for the student. If you are a local family interested in becoming a host family, please contact our International Director, Timelle Rosen by emailing trosen@horizon-christian.org or proceed to completing the Host Family Profile below. The completed profile will automatically be sent to the International Director, Timelle Rosen, who will be in contact with you.
