Canadian Series

Civics and Careers

Due to the constantly evolving situation with the pandemic, programs will be flexible and may be subject to potential modifications.

Overview

COURSE OVERVIEW

This trip has brought me together with some of the best people I’ve ever met! We didn’t know each other in class, and now we have a squad. These new people are seriously amazing, and are friends for life!

Civics & Citizenship and Career Studies come alive as students explore Toronto and Ottawa! Students learn the role Canada plays in an increasingly interconnected global community and start building their own personal definition of “citizenship.” Students see how their career choice can allow them to have a meaningful impact on the world.

Students will write campaign speeches, enact dramatizations about Canadian civics, explore the field of photojournalism, and get firsthand experience in financial literacy.
