Whitefish Bay High School Global Scholars Program

Becoming a Global Scholar is for the Whitefish Bay High School student who has a special interest and passion for global issues. The challenges today's students will face as tomorrow's leaders will involve working across geographic borders, and with people who have very different backgrounds, beliefs, and experiences. The goal of the Global Scholars Program is to ensure that students acquire the following 21st Century global skill competencies: appreciation for cultural differences, ability to understand and consider multiple perspectives, critical and comparative thinking skills, problem solving abilities, comfort with change and ambiguity, and understanding of significant global issues. Overall, the student will acquire a global mindset to investigate, navigate, participate in and contribute to our globalized world community.Â
