5. Costa Rica Teen Spanish Program Supervision
The Teen Spanish Program has a level of adult supervision that can be classified as
MODERATE. Your teen is expected to mature enough to follow our Rules.
Additionally the teen must be able to follow directions from the Teen Program
Director or any other staff of the school and
the host family. The host families used for
the Teen Spanish Program are selected due
to proximity to the Spanish school as well as
their ability to accommodate the specific
needs and attention of the teens in the Teen
Spanish Program.
The high school students will be supervised
while at the school, in the homestay, and
during activities and excursions. They are
not supervised walking to and from the
school. Additionally there are times when classes are not in session and before or
after an excursion when there is free time and the students are unsupervised. This is
why we require your teen to have an exceptional level of maturity. If you have any
doubts about the maturity level of your teen, then this program is not for your teen.
