Overview
The International Studies Program is an integral part of all students'
learning experiences at Charlotte Country Day School. The program
spans all three divisions: Lower, Middle, and Upper School. It begins
by providing students with a basic understanding of our own culture
and values and evolves into the integration of international perspectives
in all subject areas such as social studies, language arts, fine
arts, science, math, and foreign languages.
Why is International Studies Important?
International Studies gives our students the skills they will need
to coexist in a more connected world. Students must be:
- Knowledgeable about other cultures
- Sensitive to other cultures
- Comfortable with a foreign language
- Familiar with major global issues and current events
- Able to examine issues from different perspectives using critical-thinking
skills
