Passport

 

The heart of the ISA experience is the notion of global citizenship. Through an exploration of personal and national identity students will develop and refine their own sense of global citizenship by exploring the Spanish Colonial roots of San Antonio and the connections that exist between San Antonio and Zacatecas.

Itinerary

An important component of the junior curriculum in both the history and English classroom is the historical and contemporary issue of civil rights.  In order to help students more fully understand the origins, major events, and lasting impact of the American civil rights movement, we will travel to sights where the movement began, acquired momentum and gained the attention of the world.  Additionally, we will take advantage of the opportunity to see, investigate, and experience the application of math and physics to our everyday lives and the technologies that have become so important to our society by visiting the NASA Space Center February 11-15   Jay McCusker (Money)
