Where in the world are we?

Americans are notorious for their deficits in the area of geography. We are trying to change that reputation at St. Paul’s Academy. We want our students to know not only about their own state and country but also about the rest of the world. One way we give our kids an extra boost is by hosting Passport Club.

Passport Club is not really a “club” but an all-inclusive activity for our students to hone their geography skills. Students start with the continents, oceans, and deserts in 1st grade, and then the program adds 5-10 new countries per year so by the end of 4th grade students will know 195 of the world’s current independent nations.

Americans may not be famous for their geography skills but at St. Paul’s our kids are getting accolades for their attempts to change that!
