At Diamond Path, children develop an understanding of the world’s people, places, wonders and challenges. Through a rigorous core curriculum and active and engaging specialized classes, students learn how to live and work across cultures and international boundaries. By studying geography, culture, history and global issues, students gain an international perspective and a deeper understanding of the world. All students study either Spanish or Mandarin Chinese, as they work to become knowledgeable and active citizens of our global society. The international studies theme is woven into learning experiences throughout the day. Students learn about who they are, the world in which they live, how the world works and how our planet is shared. Diamond Path students develop a point of view about their place in the classroom, school, neighborhood, country and world.
