The Northwest School offers its students a variety of ways to experience the wider world. Through our Global Partner Network of schools and organizations around the world, students have opportunities to travel to China, El Salvador, France, Japan, Spain, and Taiwan. Partnerships with Ethiopia and Scotland are forthcoming. This network is centered around class trips and exchanges, and extends into shared online learning experiences, which enrich the curricular experiences of our students. Periodically, opportunities arise for additional trips to such countries as Cambodia, Cuba and Korea.
In addition to offering students the chance to travel abroad, The Northwest School hosts students from our Partner School Network each year. These students live with Northwest School families and attend special classes.
