Going Global
In the past four years, two students have been awarded the highly-competitive Global Travel Scholarship by the Pittsburgh World Affairs Council, and two students have been selected to travel to Nepal/Sri Lanka with the U.S. Department of State-sponsored Youth Ambassadors' program.
Recently, students have been inspired by their Global Issues: Call to Action class to design service trips to Haiti and Ireland.
Each year a senior Global Studies Certificate student is named the Claudia Gallant Global Studies Scholar in recognition of exceptional achievement in the field of Global Studies.
Green Thumb
A $2,000 grant from the Whole Kids Foundation Garden Grant Project was awarded to SA’s Secret Garden. The grant will fund two fruit trees, garden beds, two rain barrels, and picnic tables to allow the Secret Garden to become a true outdoor classroom and community center.
iPads for Faculty
Through a generous grant from the Home & School Association, all faculty received iPads for use in their classrooms.
Commitment to Service
During the second annual Day of Service, more than 800 students, faculty, and staff participated in 22 service projects across the region, donating over 6,400 hours of service.
