Three FTHS Students Recognized in January APP Student Voices Contest
Three students from Freehold Township High School were recognized in the Asbury Park Press Student Voices Contest. The topic for January’s essay contest was “What was the scariest moment of your life?”
Freshman Trinity Pelina, a student in the Global Studies Learning Center, won second place in January’s competition for her entry, “Fearing the Impact of My Dad’s Job Loss.”
Freshman Cole Matino, also a student in the Global Studies Learning Center, and junior Mackenzie Kean received honorable mentions for their entries, respectively titled “Lost in the City” and “Breathless Boxes.”
The Global Studies Learning Center at Freehold Township High School is an intensive study of world regions, international challenges, cultures, governments, and economies. The rapid pace of globalization means that future graduates will need a more expansive study of the world, and how the United States fits into it. Students with an interest in history, international development, diplomacy, and world order will be challenged with an accelerated and unique curriculum within the comprehensive high school, studying human geography, international relations, comparative government and politics, and international law. The Learning Center’s goal is to develop a sense of responsibility to the world community and an understanding of what it means to be an active global citizen.
