The annual dodgeball tournament is a class favorite! Grateful for all our students, past and present.

Providing students with the opportunity to effect change is one of the best parts of IGSS!

(1/3) New Trier HS IGSS teachers developed a Service Learning project in which students worked in small groups outside the school while learning about aspects of poverty specific to their interests. It focused on relevant, engaging, and student-centered learning experiences.

(2/3) IGSS teachers attended a project based learning conference, thanks to the Foundation’s first ever Fowkes Family Grant. Professional development opportunities like this provide knowledge & tools for faculty to create impactful programs for New Trier HS students.

We are so grateful to the NewTrierEdFoundation for all of their support!
