We are happy to share with you that this year we will welcome Guatemalan students on campus through the Faces and Our Cultures Program, one way we  empower students to become inclusive global citizens.

These young exchange participants spend eight  (8) weeks living with a host family while attending classes and participating in extracurricular activities at school. The dates of the program are Sunday, October 20 - Saturday, December 14.

Moravian Academy is seeking host families to make this experience possible. We are holding a virtual information session on Tuesday, April 2, 2024, at 7:00 PM. 

Students from Moravian Academy also have the opportunity to participate in a cultural exchange experience in Guatemala during their summer.  The program can be customized from two to eight weeks.  Students live with local Faces host families in Guatemala City and attend private bilingual schools.

Hosting and travel opportunities will be discussed in the virtual information session. Anyone curious is encouraged to attend! 

Additionally, If you are interested in hosting or having your child participate in this life-enriching experience, you can contact:
