In September the LKDSB International Education Program will welcome a group of Grade 8 students from Spain. These students are coming for a 12 week program and hope to be placed in schools throughout the LKDSB. We are currently looking for homestay families that would be interested in hosting an elementary age student (grade 7 or 8) in September. If you are interested please visit Canada Homestay Network at whyihost.ca for more information.



The International Education Department is receiving applications for the 2025-26 school year. Students from Spain, Italy, France, Taiwan, Thailand, Belgium, Poland, Germany, Japan, and Brazil are all looking to become part of the LKDSB community. We are looking for homestays throughout the LKDSB area to welcome students into their homes. The international students will attend grades 8-12 and they are coming from 1 month to 10 months. Homestay families receive a generous stipend monthly as well as 24/7 support. Have you considered hosting an international student?

Students got a chance to meet the Lally team, learn about careers in the automotive industry, and work on exciting hands-on projects. We’re grateful for their ongoing support of our programs like Auto Racing and Rebuilding Wheels – Rebuilding Lives. 🚗🔧
