Program Mission Statement:The World Perspectives Program (WPP) is a series of K-12 curricular initiatives that instills a deep understanding of the issues facing our local and global communities, particularly those related to health, climate and population growth. Pushing our students to think beyond the geographic and cultural boundaries of the familiar, we help them develop the leadership skills necessary to become effective and responsible global citizens. The WPP encourages cross-cultural connections and interdisciplinary modes of thinking in order to help students develop not only empathy but also the capacities with which to act. GFA students will hone the analytical skills necessary to synthesize, communicate and collaborate in creating solutions to the most pressing problems of our ever-changing world.
