Saskatchewan-Québec Student Exchange Program

The 2023 fall Saskatchewan-Québec Student Exchange Program will be modified and offered virtually.

Saskatchewan students in Grades 10 and 11 can take part in an exchange with students from Québec through a virtual exchange program.

The program will span a period of six weeks, from October 30 to December 10, 2023. A mandatory orientation session will take place virtually. All communication/activities will take place after school hours and on weekends. Students will be in contact with their twin at least twice during the week.

As the Saskatchewan-Québec Student Exchange Program will be held virtually in the 2023 school year, the liaison teacher is not required to conduct an interview with the student and their family.
