Your kids go to a school committed to developing and fostering global competence?
Did you know?
Global Competence is defined as the ability and disposition to understand and act on issues of global concern.
Did you know?
As Global Learners our students are asked to.....
Investigate the World.
Weigh Multiple Perspectives.
Take Action
Communicate Ideas
(ask your kids about these four global domains. They can probably talk your ear off about each of them)
Did you know?
One of the ways we develop global competency is by being committed to getting students up and out of the classroom, and building lasting meaningful relationships with our community.
Last year alone Aveson students partnered with community members and organizations big and small, local and throughout the San Gabriel Valley and Greater Los Angeles Area.
These partnerships have allowed our students to have new and exciting experiences, explore and investigate their community hand’s on, attend conferences and workshops both on and off campus, brought guest speakers of all sorts to a number of classrooms across grade levels and gave them access to a multitude of resources, perspectives and opportunities to take action while making a difference.
Did you know?
From October, 2012 to June, 2013 Aveson Charter Schools received over 1200 Metro passes to explore and experience its community, while finding ways to weigh multiple perspectives and take action locally to make a difference.
Here's a quick look as some of our partners and the places we explored.
