There are over six billion people on this planet. Two hundred and eighty million live in the United States, and there are representatives from every culture among them. Diversity is the key element to the quality ot education and overall experience at The Winchendon School. There are over ten languages that are spoken fluently here. Over fifty percent ofthe population is international students. The wonderful mix of students that reside on a central campus incorporates many divergentlas- pects of student life. Having so many diverse stu- dents produces a feeling of a miniature NYC, a melting pot. Students here get a sense of some- thing that most other students dont get to experi- ence until college, and even then it is not a guar- antee. The receptive attitude that students gain as the years progress is incredible. . - David Rotberg PG LLM.
