The Global Competency Diploma is a new path choice for students who wish to follow a plan of study that is focused on learning about multicultural and international issues and developing attitudes and thinking skills about global issues.
Students are required to study foreign language for 4 years, do 30 of their 40 hours of community service in a multi-cultural setting, have a foreign travel experience (either a school sponsored trip/exchange or a pre-approved family/individual trip with educational and cultural components, an internationally related senior project, attendance at non school related local cultural events and earn credits in under the following headings: Global Economics and Research, Global Cultural Literacy and Global Ethics.
A student decides in the spring of their freshman year whether to start this track of courses. Each year a guidance counselor will review the requirements with their students. The culminating project is a final portfolio presented to a faculty panel in 2 languages including evidence of the use of current technology in communication and collaborative workplace technologies.
