Terry Capaldi, President/Executive Director
For over 15 years, I have served the international student community in their endeavors to graduate with an American high school or IB diploma. I became interested in managing my own company after serving with a friend my first Chinese camp back in 2006.
My friend first introduced me to hosting international students in 2005 when I hosted a Japanese student for her camp. She then invited me to run my own camp the following year and I have loved working with internationals ever since.
My first camp was a group of Chinese students and their chaperone and it was such a success that in the subsequent years we host groups from Spain and France, Japan, Korea, and China.
Once I became embroiled in summer camps, I then began to incorporate academic year programs and have worked with students from all over the world including, China, Korea, Ivory Coast, Brazil, Mongolia, Vietnam, and Spain. We are mostly located in the tri-state area of Pennsylvania, Delaware, and New Jersey, but have students located in States all across the US. We work with SEVIS-approved private schools that offer quality education, and school sports and clubs, where they not only earn a high school diploma but also learn team-building and develop life-long friendships. They are then well-prepared for their next adventure as a University Student!
