Ongoing program services are provided by two co-affiliate directors to students and their teachers both in-person and online. 0 0 In our Global Issues Problem curriculum our students build essential skills to solve social scientific and humanitarian challenges that plague society. These students advance significantly over their 8 years in the program. We had 21 schools and approximately 750 active participants this year. 0 0 In our Community Problem Solving curriculum we have had students develop critical services for their piers. One example is a program developed by our high school students to create awareness around teen suicide.
