While there are many outstanding young people in
every high school, Green Across the Pacific's programs are not for
every student. Many high school students do not have the maturity,
resilience or self-confidence to take full advantage of our programs.
You can help us get the word out to those students who would be an
excellent fit for our program. We value having students with diverse
interests and backgrounds in each program.
In general, our students are:
- independent thinkers
- self-confident
- thoughtful risk takers
- young people who care deeply
.. about learning
about themselves,
.. about the environment
.. about another culture
- willing to spend three intensive weeks during the summer away from family and friends
- highly motivated to share what they learn through their writing and with their community
Many of our students have referred to their time with Green as a "life changing experience." With your nomination, you have the opportunity to make an extraordinary difference in someone's life. Thank you for your help!
