Course description

Imagine your family in the heart of Los Angeles for a premier school
immersion experience that will change your lives! This July, dive into an
extraordinary journey that blends a premier school immersion for
students in grades 1-8 with language and culture classes for adults.
Our Family Program is more than a vacation; it’s an educational odyssey
designed to forge international friendships that span the globe. While
students connect with American peers through academics and thrilling
recreational activities, parents can sharpen their English edge or indulge
in LA’s legendary museum circuit, high-end shopping, and iconic
landmarks.

Students don’t just study; they thrive in a vibrant ecosystem of learning
and play. Mornings are dedicated to mastering Language Arts,
Mathematics, and Science, while afternoons feature creativity and
innovation in subjects such as Dance, STEM, Art, and Music.

We’ve designed this program with ultimate parental freedom in mind.
Spend your mornings in our Encompass ESL classes and keep your
afternoons wide open for retail therapy, coastal relaxation, or urban
exploration. Prefer not to study? The choice is yours! Our bespoke
package options ensure students have an unforgettable adventure while
parents savor a dream vacation in one of the most vibrant cities on Earth.

Join us for iconic weekend excursions or set off on your own path.

- Comprehensive full-day immersion for students (Grades 1-8) with local
