Global Citizenship and Cultural Competency

At Rivers, Global Education focuses on curricular, co-curricular, and extracurricular opportunities to incorporate global competencies and perspectives throughout the school community. In addition to curricular integration, opportunities for global engagement include travel programs, webinars, and conferences, which equip students with the tools they need to meet a more interconnected world, nurturing values of mutual respect, cross-cultural understanding, equity, and justice.
