International Studies
International Studies & Exchange is an independent study course where each student establishes a relationship with one student in either Russia, Serbia, Germany, South Africa, South Korea, India, Spain, Norway or Greece and then completes specific assignments with their correspondent throughout the year. These assignments require (among other things) comparison of cultures, school systems, economies, challenges facing their nations and personal family history.
Students interested in joining the International Studies Program will need to register for the general program via Skyward and then will be placed in the individual classes via an application process. Applications will be shared with the students before spring break and placement will be completed by early May.
