Home away from home!
Our high school Residence Hall boarding provides an opportunity for students to grow socially and spiritually in a community where they care for themselves and each other. In addition to benefiting students who participate in the residence hall program, the program enriches the entire school with an international perspective.
Dorm Living – Residence Hall
Millstream Hall is our on-campus dormitory. Our boarding program offers a great opportunity for students to prepare for the increased independence and responsibility of college life, and to share their own unique background and experiences.
Our Residence Hall boarding program a “home away from home” for many students who otherwise would not have been able to attend. Many students comment that our Residence Hall boarding program was among the most significant parts of their time at Lancaster Mennonite, building close friendships with other dormmates.
Millstream Hall can accommodate 67 students. They are a diverse group of students from other areas in the United States, and from other countries such as China, Ethiopia, and Vietnam.
Residential students have access to facilities on campus, such as the sports center and library. The dormitory is also within walking distance of several restaurants, shopping, banks, convenience stores, and hair salons.
Four-night and Seven-day Programs
The four-night residence hall program is for those who can spend weekends off-campus with their family or a host family. Room and board are provided during the school week, from Monday after school to Friday at 5 pm. International students may choose this option if they have a guardian in the area or if an agency is arranging for a weekend homestay.
The seven-day residence hall boarding program includes room and board for weekends for those that are from more distant locations. Students are provided with meals and accommodations full time during the school year. The seven-day program does close for Christmas and Summer breaks.
A Director of Residence Life, along with Resident Advisors, provide oversight and program activities for boarding students.
International Students
We’ve had students from over 30 countries at our school. Lancaster Mennonite’s international program provides excellent college prep courses and living accommodations in the dorm or home stay options. Local high school students are encouraged to join LM’s International Students Association (ISA), a club for students from all nationalities including the U.S., to connect, share experiences, and support each other. Having students at our school from around the world sharing their language and culture is one part of living out LM’s core value of Cultivating Global Citizens in our school community. LM also offers teacher-led opportunities to travel abroad for local students.

LM has been my home since I first came here to the US in 2012.
学校给了我很多机会来挑战自己作为领导者，并帮助我成为一个更好的人。我被许多人激励着，我有幸结识了从教师到学生。各种各样的课程和组织也教会了我许多我将永远珍惜的人生课程。

The Christian environment, the high quality of the faculty, staff and students stand out.
LMH offers so many different options for academic courses and athletics. I recommend LMH to those who are looking for a high quality education and a friendly place at the same time.

Homestay Option
Live with an American Host Family
Being in a residence hall/dormitory with other international students can be a great experience. However, students who stay with host families become more immersed in the language and culture. Also, host families treat their students as family members – involving them in activities, excursions, and household responsibilities.
Host families are available for students who prefer an enriching experience living with an American family and learning the culture. Host families are arranged through local agencies in the U.S. which match students with registered host families. Each qualified host family must pass a selective screening process, undergo a thorough background check, an interview and home visit from the local agencies to ensure they are suited to welcome international students into their family and home.
LM does not arrange for host families or homestays. School policy is that all host families of LM students must be arranged and supervised by an approved local agency. If students do not have an approved agency overseeing and providing support to their host family, they will be required to board in the school residence hall.
