Youth Exchange Program
Summer Camp Exchange Program
The Summer Camp Exchange Programs last three weeks. It is organized as an international youth camp, which bring together students from many different countries.
Short Term Exchange Program
Short-term exchanges are three to four weeks in length. They often take place when school is not in session and usually do not include an academic program. Short-term exchanges involve a stay with a host family and a visit from a host brother or sister.
Long Term Exchange Program
Long-term exchanges usually last for an academic year, during which the student lives with more than one family and attends school in the host country.

Inbound Student Orientation
This year’s Inbound Orientation will be held in conjunction with The SCANEX Orientation and International Camp Out sponsored by the Lake Elsinore Rotary Club. Students from approximately 28 countries will attend and learn more about our expectations of them as Youth Ambassadors from their respective countries but also bond as the Class of 2006-07 and have some end of summer fun before starting school.
International Ski Weekend
January/February 2007 is the tentative date for this annual event where our Long Term Inbound and future Outbound students meet with their counterparts from the other SCANEX (Southern California, Arizona and Nevada and now to include Hawaii and Utah) Districts.
