For those of you looking for a study abroad program for your teen, go with SPI Study Abroad:
Both of my kids have studied abroad with SPI (in Costa Rica and in Italy) and loved it. I felt very comfortable with the level of supervision provided, and SPI is so supportive before, during and after the program.
The leaders make themselves very readily available to the students.
Studying abroad in high school is a once in a lifetime experience and I honestly couldn’t have been more impressed with SPI!
