Go global to become a global citizen; and our school students in grades 9 to 12 will have this fantastic opportunity. During these trips, the students will be actively studying and completing parts of various courses, actually “living” their curriculum.
Real global citizenship requires real global experience. Whether it will be a language immersion trip to France, a service project in Peru, or a classical tour of Italy, students will have opportunities to hone their language skills, make lasting friendships with their peers from NFPS, and develop intercultural competencies and their leadership skills.
We may indeed visit famous sites, but the purpose of each trip is to craft an experience that will broaden our students’ perspective, impart knowledge, and engage them in the life of the community, region, or country visited. Each trip has, as its larger goal, the intent of helping our students develop as individuals and citizens.
