About Global Scholars and the fundraiser:
The Edina Rotary Global Scholars is a graduation pathway developed in partnership with Edina Public Schools, The Rotary Club of Edina, Edina Morningside Rotary, and the Edina Education Fund. Students will develop intercultural leadership, research, and communication skills that enhance college and career readiness. The program was established in 2020 and has grown to serve over 120 students. To become a Global Scholar, students participate in a global collaboration experience that can involve international travel. This year's international travel experiences include Science to Madagascar, Global Scholars to Morocco, Social Studies to Vietnam & Spain, and Band to St. Thomas. There are national travel experiences as well, including Social Studies to Washington D.C. and science to Glacier National Park. To make these travel experiences happen and ensure access to all students, we are creating a scholarship fund.
