Middle School Global Education
Our global education program connects our students and teachers with their peers from educational institutions around the world. Collaborating with schools in Australia, China, Costa Rica, Japan and Kazakhstan, we support our students as they build cross-cultural awareness and understanding of global issues through online collaboration, domestic and international travel opportunities and experiential learning activities.
Global Learning Opportunities
To ensure our students deeply understand their roles as global citizens, we focus our program on four areas:
Awareness
Our students learn about themselves, their community and culture and how their experience relates to their peers in other regions and countries. With our global sister schools, students exchange newspapers, magazines, artwork and more.
Collaboration
Teaming up with students across the world, our students develop collaborative projects. Our sixth grade students exchange emails with students in Japan to create video games together, while our grade 7 students contribute to an online poetry forum with students in Kazakhstan.
Experiential Learning
Through domestic and international travel opportunities, student exchanges and video conferences, our students play an active role as global learners. Every year, students participate in various international competitions in subjects like math or debate.
Action/Social Justice Outreach
We teach our students to become responsible global citizens, with a desire to affect change in the world. In recent years our students have raised funds for major campaigns including international natural disaster relief efforts in countries including Haiti and the Philippines.
