Why is it important for Chelmsford?
Why is it important for Chelmsford?
The mission statement at Chelmsford High School is "to cultivate inspired, creative, and well-rounded lifelong learners who possess the integrity and self-direction necessary to be contributing community members." Global education is a guide to help meet those needs. By modeling how to investigate the world, recognize perspective, communicate ideas and take action, we can foster the development of life-long learners who can be a contributing member of our community.
Part of preparing students to be Global Citizens include teaching students to address the Sustainable Development Goals set up by the United Nations. Looking at these goals, we can prepare students to succeed in a global market and be informed citizens of the world.
