Testimonials

Before I came to TGS, most of what I learned was what I was told I had to learn. I enjoyed the lessons and the knowledge I gained, but they weren’t necessarily intrinsic.

Being able to choose what I learned through project-based learning was a really fresh experience that let me establish my interests and do what I’m good at, not just work based on school reports. I valued that autonomy.

Souen Kim
Class of 2020, South Korea

THINK Global School exposed Chase to an approach to education greater than everything we imagined it to be. He grew so much, always asking insightful questions, understanding process and context, and working as part of a team.

The THINK Global School community is also wonderful and inspiring, with educators dedicated to the growth and success of each student. The bonds Chase forged with his peers and teachers, in both challenging and wonderful situations, will last a lifetime.

Chris Peterson
Parent, United States

THINK Global School was life-changing for Paula. She found a home and a family that is truly spread out across the world. She developed a sense of belonging, community, and responsibility that is unusual for someone her age. She is concerned with world issues and wants to participate with positive input. She has taken responsibility for her education and understands that education is a lifelong ongoing task.

Many of these traits were natural to her, but at TGS, she learned to empower them. She feels at home, no matter where that is.

Diego Marquina
Parent, Mexico

THINK Global School has supported my dreams and passions in a way I could previously have only dreamed of. As I am very interested in emerging technologies, pursuing an unconventional form of education has been very valuable as it’s given me the freedom and flexibility to learn and design. Through my personal projects, I’ve created things I never thought I could bring to reality, like machine learning products or brain-computer interfacing.

I consider TGS the most innovative school in the world, and despite it being a challenging educational program, I always find myself motivated to get work done. Joining TGS was the best decision I ever made.

Bido Hafrag
Class of 2023, Egypt

My year and a half at THINK Global School was the biggest period of growth in my life, but what I found most valuable was learning to focus on the commonalities rather than differences between myself and the people around me. I realized just how much I share in common with people, no matter where we come from or what our life experiences are.

I had the extreme privilege of spending my last two years of high school connecting with the most incredible people from across the world, all of whom I can now call some of my closest friends, and I could not be more grateful.

Tobin Mayo-Kiely
Class of 2022, United States

Traditional schooling was smothering Justin and left him uninspired, uninterested, and unmotivated. THINK Global School was a game-changer and truly transformed him. He is engaged, inquisitive, determined, and ready to jump into life and all it has to offer wholeheartedly.

Project-based learning allowed Justin to explore many different areas and design his own approach to mastering each. Whether he follows his passions to become an entrepreneur, a coder, or a rapper, he has THINK Global School to thank for opening his eyes to a world of possibilities.

Jennifer and Betsy Smith Hoopes
Parents, United States

THINK Global School allowed my son to see global issues around the world, analyze research questions, and try to find solutions. As a result, he developed broader ways of thinking with references that are shaping his maturity, independence, and empathy to the problems around him, wherever he is.

Delima Taurisia
Parent, Indonesia

THINK Global School not only changed our child’s life, but our entire family’s as well. As Jess traveled the world, we all grew with them as they became a confident, mature, and incredible human being.

THINK Global School nurtured our child and supported them throughout their three years, giving them experiences which otherwise they may never have had.

Shirley Pegram
Parent, South Africa

While sitting around the dinner table with Emma and Jonah a month or so ago, reminiscing about their TGS journey, we were truly mesmerized by their experiences and the gratitude we all felt for them having had the opportunity to attend THINK Global School.

Nothing, really nothing, compares or even comes close to what they learned while at THINK Global School.

Jean and Stephen Dollery
Parents, Zimbabwe

One piece of advice for students considering joining THINK Global School: Go out there and experience the world! Don’t leave learning to just the classroom. Be open-minded, curious, and humble, but don’t forget that you also have something within you to share with the world. Enjoy the ride and take in all this world has to offer.

Our Origins

Founder Joann McPike was inspired to start THINK Global School by her son, Alex. A world traveler with over 70 stamps in his passport by the age of 14, Alex wasn’t ready to stow his suitcase just to attend high school. Together, they envisioned a school that focuses on world travel, individualized learning, and positive change.  13 years and 30 countries later, it’s going stronger than ever.

Today, TGS stands alone as the only high school that immerses students in the cultures and customs of ten countries. Besides offering challenging academics, our Changemaker Curriculum fosters curiosity and compassion, empowering students to become global citizens ready to make impactful changes. If you’re always curious and constantly seeking answers, this is a school where you’ll truly thrive.
