Going Global in Grade 8

Going Global in Grade 8 allows us to extend the global mission of the Academy – to develop global citizens and leaders – into our Middle School experience and curriculum. Enrolling international students in Grade 8 provides our Academy an additional year to promote, foster and build a greater level of engagement for our students to grow and develop into positive and effective global leaders.
