Global Education The school of Global Education and its in¬ structors have given students many new alter¬ natives for the mysterious future. The students in Global have learned how to open the doors in life with confidence and understanding. They have had a number of experiences that will stay with them for a long time. For exam¬ ple, they participated in a model United Na¬ tions held in London, Ontario. This meant forming several delegations to represent coun¬ tries from all around the world, including Bra¬ zil, the United Kingdom, Denmark, Nigeria, Guyana, Japan, and Poland. An additional Nica¬ raguan delegation was made up of Global graduates. The Global students also had the opportunity to display their ethnic interests and talents at Livonia City Hall on May 20, 1982, proclaimed by the mayor as Global Awareness Day . Another ethnic experience for Global stu¬ dents was a trip to the Detroit Eastern Market. On this trip, they saw how many countries in the world helped to feed Americans by selling and shipping their goods to our country. Yet another field trip was to downtown De¬ troit. The ' globies ' toured Greek Town, the Ren. Cen., and the Hart Plaza ethnic festival for a day. The 1981-1982 school year was a success fi¬ nancially for Global Education. Although it was one of the smallest groups participating in Danny ' s Grocery Day , they raised one of the highest amounts of money among all the groups involved. This money and money from other fund-raising by parents was used to help pay for field trips. Global Education, a very new concept in the field of education, is constantly expanding at Stevenson High School. Next year approxi¬ mately 130 students are enrolled, almost dou¬ ble the 70 students in this year ' s Global school. Global is a wave of the future in education, constantly teaching students about their com¬ munity, their country and the planet Earth. They learn how to help find solutions to the problems of the world tomorrow and today. Global is the missing piece.
