The International High School and the French American International School are featured participants of "Focus the Nation". Our students will be given opportunities to actively learn about and work on age appropriate global warming solutions. The School Administration and the Green Task Force have decided to use participation in Focus the Nation as a highly visible and participatory catalyst to help vault the Task Force's "Green Initiative" throughout the school community, proactively engaging every student and (hopefully) every school community household in education and actions "focused" on timely identifying and implementing actions that can mitigate global warming.
