BAKER COUNTY – The Baker School District is currently seeking families who would be interested in hosting exchange students this year. The district says that they have agents in both Asia and Europe who are expressing interest in placing students between the ages of 16 and 18 in Baker City this coming spring.

According to information from the school district, “a group from France will need housing for just 3 days in late March before spring break (exact travel dates TBA). We also have a group from Asia that might be seeking a longer-term placement this spring.”

Anyone who may be interested in being a host family is asked to contact Dr. Joseph at thomas.joseph@bakersd.org

Dr. Joseph can assist with any questions and further details about the application and background check process.
