Interesting facts to note:
Did you realize that only 2% of high schoolers in the U.S. participate in study abroad programs? Studying abroad is an incredibly enriching experience that contributes significantly to personal development and skill-building, becoming a crucial element of the teenage educational journey. Lindblom Math & Science Academy is delighted to be affiliated with the Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE) as a Global Navigator Partner School. This affiliation ensures our students have enhanced access to global study opportunities. Every summer, students from Lindblom join their peers from around the country in various international destinations, returning enriched with remarkable stories of personal growth, leadership, and widened global viewpoints. This past summer, some of our students had the enriching experience of studying in Morocco and Madrid.
