In a situation very reminiscent of our Berlin 2011-2012 term, our time in Boston has provided us with easy access via rail to other nearby cosmopolitan cities. Due to this, our students were able to visit both Washington, D.C. and New York City this term and experience each city's unique attractions, delicacies and neighborhoods. Our trip to NYC occurred mid-May, which allowed our students to visit the city in the...

With our 2012-13 school year sadly drawing towards its end, we can now gleefully reminisce on all that our students and faculty accomplished as they made their way across three continents.

The following opinion piece was written by Global Studies teacher Nick Martino and originally appeared on his blog Defenders of Ma'at. Why was 9/11 so important in the psyche of Americans, specifically New Yorkers?   We don’t get attacked. We attack others. We rarely lose. Wars aren’t fought on our home turf.

Among NYC's bright lights are its many advertisements, and Times Square feels like a breeding ground for them. I...

My goal for our visit to the USS Massachusetts was to use it as a weXplore trip that would benefit all TGS students. Students in Mr. Cailey's IB History class, for instance, have been studying war strategies used in World War II, so getting a chance to spend the night aboard a battleship that was involved in the Allied Island Hopping Campaign would be a perfect opportunity to further their...

If you don’t know who Lucy Alibar is yet, you should. Not because she wrote the extraordinarily imaginative and moving film, Beasts of the Southern Wild. Not because her film was nominated for four Academy Awards, and not because director Benh Zeiltin turns a rural Louisiana fishing marina into a place where anyone feels instantly at home. You should know who Lucy Alibar is because she represents a new generation...

"The opposite of hungry is not full. It's healthy."   -A message seen during The Walk For Hunger Winter in the New England region of the United States can be a grueling affair, and the constant barrage of storms during the first quarter of 2013 reinforced this fact for us. The blankets of white snow eventually did give way to green, however, as spring inevitably arrived. This pleasant shift in...

Greetings TGS, Long time reader, first time blogger here. Some of you may have noticed that I can be a little patriotic...
