Through global studies, we believe we can help students become responsible members of local, national, and global communities. To provide global experiences, students will have the opportunity to participate in skype experiences, international service learning projects, globally focused project-based learning, along with integration with academic standards and curriculum programs. Students will also have the great opportunity to be exposed to the Mandarin language beginning in kindergarten with full language exploration beginning in fifth grade. Estrella Foothills Global Academy is an International Baccalaureate Candidate School for the Middle Years Programme. Through this programme, all students will embark upon the focused learning attributes with every lesson including three specific inquiry questions that are factual, conceptual, and debatable. The Middle Years Programme is a challenging framework that encourages students to make practical connections between their studies and the real world.
