SYA Summer France Recently Updated

During this five-week summer study abroad program adventure, students will touch down in Paris — and then travel to the Loire Valley, where they will have a three-day orientation. From there the group will travel to the school in Rennes where host families will welcome students.

For the next four weeks, mornings will be dedicated to level-appropriate French classes. Afternoons will be filled with local activities and trips to places like Mont Saint-Michel, Saint Malo and Normandy. Other activities include kayaking, rope courses, art lessons and cooking classes. Evenings and weekends will be spent in the comfort of their host family's home where students will learn more about the French language and culture than they ever could in the classroom.

The final week of the program is a group trip to Paris where students will discover the famous museums and monuments.
