PDS Spirit - Spring 2012 Issue

Making Global Connections

We live in a dynamic, diverse, interconnected global community, and, as a school, we need to assure that we are preparing our boys to thrive and lead as scholars and citizens in that world.

For the last few years, our faculty, staff and Board have engaged in important and stimulating research and conversations about the world and how we best prepare our boys for it. This issue of PDS Spirit focuses on our questions and conversations, and it highlights some of the initiatives we have undertaken, ranging from the addition of Mandarin a few years ago to the development of a strategic partnership with a leading independent school in Buenos Aires, Argentina, to taking some boys on a service learning trip to Costa Rica, to our exciting Model UN program.
