For about two weeks the Haddonfield students will be living with Japanese host families, whose values are basically the same as families here in Haddonfield. The language and customs may be different, but there are more similarities than differences.

The total cost of this trip is the cost of the airfare, which is yet to be determined, plus some small expenses for group gifts, etc.
