Global Studies Preps for Class of 2019

Staff Report

The Global Studies Learning Center, formerly the Contemporary Global Issues Learning Center, is an intensive study of world regions, international challenges, cultures, governments, and economies. The rapid pace of globalization means that future graduates will need a more expansive study of the world, and how the United States fits into it. Students with an interest in history, international development, diplomacy, and world order will be challenged with an accelerated and unique curriculum within the comprehensive high school, studying human geography, international relations, comparative government and politics, and international law.

The Global Studies webpage states, “Our goal is to develop a sense of responsibility to the world community and an understanding of what it means to be an active global citizen.”

This year’s application will open on October 6, 2014.

Mrs. Judith Newins, history supervisor, is in charge of the Global Studies program at FTHS and can be reached at x3015.
