Spanish Exchange is partnered with a private school outside of Barcelona,  La Ginesta in Spain.  The exchange program consists of a two week home stay here in September of 2008. Our students return for two weeks to Barcelona, Spain in June of 2009 before going to another city for 5 days.  The exchange takes place every other year.
