Build a Foundation for Students to Achieve Global Literacy

Collaborate with VIF to establish a vision for international education, global school model and implementation plan that is aligned with state and local mandates. Passport, a VIF Global Literacy School program, emphasizes experiential learning, cultural exposure and early language skills.

Building on strong cross-cultural communication skills and early language learning, Passport students learn to collaborate effectively with global peers.
