Over the last several months, those of us at the team have enjoyed a wealth of new insights that have been helping us to better connect the school with you, its students. The theme of this issue is “Global Citizens,” and we collected stories of our inspiring genera- tion who really do their part in making our world a better place. One of the most unfortunate things about our current state is the many dangers we as youths face. Whether it is addiction, technol- ogy or disabilities, our community has slowly emerged as a hub for threatening activities to take place. Therefore, we have gathered a vibrant mix of moral prowess from our future leaders and are high- lighting their initiatives to you today. Ultimately, in this issue, as we always attempt to do, we present an array of both the here and the now and of the near and very practical future. In this issue, you’ll get a chance to meet artists, scientists, risk takers, inventors, politicians, and leaders who have something in common: They are all global citizens. Even more important, they all identify with being part of an emerging world community and whose actions contribute to building our earth’s values and practices. JANUARY 2018 THE LINK 5
