Providing students with an educational experience that contributes to their develop- ment as global citizens is a core part of what Appleby is as a school, with global perspec- tives and understanding strongly embedded elements of the Appleby experience. Beginning with the September 2018 in- coming class, students are now required to participate in a global learning experience as part of their high school education. "The world is becoming increasingly global and we are a fully global community at Appleby," shared Katrina Samson, Head of School. "Now is the time to make sure that every Appleby student has the oppor- tunity to develop cultural competencies in a global context, so that when they go out in the world and work alongside other in- dividuals they are able to understand the political, social and economic in� uences that impact decisions." "The decision to make a global learn- ing experience a core requirement of the Appleby diploma really speaks to what we believe in as a school," said Rob McGui- ness, assistant head of school, global education and director of intercultural and experiential programs. "By fully connecting immersive global learning experiences with the curriculum we are helping students be- come more self-aware with a heightened understanding of the world around them, and to develop skills to collaborate across cultures as they prepare to be leaders with- in this globalized world." Students have a variety of options to choose from in meeting the diploma re- quirement, including international service, intercultural, expedition/trek, � eld studies, or language immersion programs, as well as exchanges and Round Square Interna- tional conferences. Having participated in an Intercultural Trip to Morocco and attended a Round Square International Conference in South Africa, Appleby grade 12 student Corissa Larson says the experience has made her a stronger, more con� dent person. "My global experiences have brought me a love for travel and have taught me so many amazing lessons that I would never have received in the classroom. These ex- periences have taught me what it means to be a global citizen and have inspired me to become actively engaged in any way that I can to help make the world a better place."
