SBE Strategic Plan
Educating for Global Competence in Social Studies
Global Education is deeply embedded in K-12 Social Studies Essential Standards and ensures students gain a global perspective by asking students to continually examine diverse cultures, understand multiple perspectives as well as analyze global social, political and economic challenges overtime in diverse societies and regions. It prepares students to be effective citizens who investigate the world, communicate and critique ideas, and take informed action in our global society.
