Additional fun facts:
Did you know that only 2% of U.S. high school students study abroad? Study abroad is a truly transformative experience that builds real-world skills and has become an integral part of the teenage journey. Lindblom Math & Science Academy is proud to be a Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE) Global Navigator Partner School, meaning our students have special access to these opportunities. Each summer, Lindblom students join peers from across the U.S. abroad, returning with inspiring stories of growth, leadership, and new global perspectives. This past summer, several of our students studied in Morocco and Madrid.
