Spanish Exchange Program – Madrid 2011

This March, six Foxcroft girls and seven girls from Madeira will embark on an exchange program to Madrid. Our partner school in Madrid is Jesús-María de Juan Bravo. It’s a well-known coeducational Catholic Day school in the center of Madrid, grades K-12. Students will stay with host families, take classes in the mornings, and spend the afternoons and evenings soaking up all of the exciting cultural experiences that this huge, historic city has to offer. Aside from brushing up on their Spanish, the girls will get to see a live flamenco show with music and dancing, visit a late-night “churrería” for churros and chocolate, and visit the famed Prado museum with some of Juan Bravo’s art history teachers. We will also make a quick trip out Segovia, a small medieval town in the heart of Spain with a Roman aqueduct and an enormous hilltop palace.
