Nous sommes arrivés!
The CIEE High School Paris language and culture program has arrived!
We are off and running with lots of cultural activities, orientation, and language learning. After the students arrived, they spent their first two nights with their host families as they began to form connections and practice their language skills. On our first full day, we learned about the program in an orientation and began to learn to navigate the city. For our first real view of all the city has to offer, our students took a ride on the Seine river in the famous "bateaux mouches". They were able to see famous monuments such as the Louvre museum, the Musée d'Orsay, the Eiffel tower, Notre Dame, and countless others! We're looking forward to a full week of activities and language learning.
À bientôt!
