Host Family Needed
Bishop Chatard continues to expand its international program with the acceptance of four new students for the 2017-18 school year. The success of this program is dependent on host families who will provide a room, meals and loving support to one of these fine students. We will be welcoming two girls, one freshman and one sophomore, and two boys, one freshman and one sophomore. Host families receive monthly funds to meet the needs of the student, such as food and transportation. The student is responsible for all tuition and school-related expenses. We ask that you prayerfully consider opening your home to this wonderful opportunity. For more details, please contact Catherine Welch at cwelch@bishopchatard.org or Jane Greer, FLAG Local Coordinator, at 317-523-2400.
