Neshaminy student studies abroad

Neshaminy junior Catelyn Ballard takes her normal high school required classes, but instead of learning in a typical Neshaminy classroom, she’s learning in the southeast of Provence, France.
Through the Rotary Club’s Youth Exchange program (RYE), Ballard is able to get a high school education and explore the culture of different countries around the world. RYE is a program that sends 15- to 19-year-olds on exchanges. There are two different types to choose from, long term and short term; Ballard chose long term, which lasts a total of 10 months. Students choose five countries they would want to live in, and the RYE picks one of them for the exchange student.
“[RYE] is an 10-month program, but I was able to stay for an extra month because France is okay with me staying and my visa has another month, so my exchange will be 11 months. Read more.
