GLOBAL EXCHANGE PROGRAM


HSG students share their experiences through our Global Exchange Program.
 

exchange partners

Through the Hawai‘i School for Girls at La Pietra Global Exchange Program, students will have the opportunity to experience a short-term, immersive stay at our partner schools, subject to availability: 

  • Hakuho Girls’ High School (Yokohama, Japan)
  • Crofton House School (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada)
  • Pymble Ladies College (Pymble, New South Wales, Australia)

Students who will be in Grades 9-12 in school year 2026-2027 are encouraged to apply. Applicants must maintain good academic and behavioral standing. Some proficiency in the language of the destination country is helpful, but not required. Each student and their family must be willing to host a sister-school student. A reciprocal one-to-one arrangement is preferred to strengthen the cross-cultural exchange partnership. In rare circumstances, Hawai‘i School for Girls may arrange alternative hosting, but this will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and is not guaranteed.
