9th - 12th The Academy for Global Studies (AGS): ​Academics

● At AGS, I am taught to look at the world through a global perspective. This meant traveling
worldwide to Heifer International (Arkansas), & Costa Rica, & Thailand (January). It also meant
that we did individual & group projects focusing on improving the world around us. We made
urban gardens to reduce “food deserts,” hosted a low-cost clothing store to help reduce poverty,
& taught middle schoolers about hardships occurring in Rwanda, Africa. AGS has shaped my
high school experience & has taught me things I will bring with me after high school.
