To INSPIRE and prepare GLOBAL CITIZENS!
Welcome to International !
Middle school can be as exhilarating as it is bewildering . It is your time to “take chances, make mistakes., get messy,” while at the same time learning to become more organized, follow through, and be able to explain and share your ideas. Browse this website to get an idea of what we will study during sixth grade. One of our main goals here at ISLC is to encourage all students to feel capable, significant, and academically challenged, while at the same time helping you study how the world works and what you can do about global issues that interest you.
If you have any questions about the assignments or the school, please email me through your student Schoology account.
Best Regards,
Mr. Forfar

ISLC BACKGROUND
In 2003, Asia Society launched the International Studies Schools Network with an ambitious, two-part mission: close the achievement gap for low-income and historically underserved secondary students, and address the growing opportunity gap between what American schools typically teach and the knowledge, skills, and dispositions required for full participation in a global economy. ISLC has been a member of ISSN since 2004.
