We are thrilled that the tradition of the Japanese Exchange can resume from April 12-26, 2024!
For the 2024 exchange, we are looking for student school hosts for 40 Japanese students that will attend Eisenhower and Davis. For the 2024 exchange, Japanese students will not attend other high schools.
If you are a student at Davis or Ike, you will meet your Japanese student at school every morning and they will accompany you to your classes and activities throughout the day. They will return to their host family after school. You will reap the rewards of a friendship for a lifetime.
Please apply using this form. We will contact you for an interview, and then with confirmation of your hosting arrangement. For more details, please go to www.ysd7.org/YamateExchange
