TREAMIS World School and
Morgan Park Academy will begin to develop a partnership to promote sharing of knowledge, exchange of information and experiences, and mutual
agreeable initiatives that support and strengthen the curriculum goals of both schools.
Morgan Park Academy is one of the oldest schools in Illinois with an undisputed record of academic excellence and inter-school
cooperation. Both MPA and TREAMIS offer integrated curriculum of academics, arts and sports. They both the share the vision
of strong inter-school partnerships in order to achieve curriculum goals and develop global learning environment. MPA and
TREAMIS will conduct periodically student and teacher exchange programs, develop curriculum and teaching methodology and exchange
information on technology and library science.
Bill Adams, Head of School, Morgan Park Academy said, "TREAMIS
shares the beliefs, values and the mission on which Morgan Park Academy is based. I am glad that we are associating with TREAMIS
to provide a high standard of education to the students worldwide. Bringing these two schools together will allow us to transcend
what MPA has accomplished in the last 130 years and what TREAMIS is planning to achieve as individual institutions. Together
the schools will reinvent the K-12 education in the context of globalization'.
Quoting Thomas Friedman, the
author of 'The World is Flat', who states that "Knowledge of the world is no longer a luxury--it is a necessity",
David Hibbs, Head of Upper School, Morgan Park Academy remarked "It is because the world has changed so dramatically
in recent years that the young people in American schools need to be connected to schools throughout the world. Our relationship
with TREAMIS school in Bangalore benefits students from both schools. We have much to offer to students in India, one of the
fastest growing economies in the world. The students and teachers in India have so much to offer us. Our hope is that by developing
a comprehensive program, we will help students become compassionate, ethical and successful in interacting with diverse peoples
and cultures to create a more humane, sustainable global society."
"By associating with MPA we hope
to develop a curriculum that is global in nature and helps students become global citizens. The children in Bangalore and
Chicago will be the true beneficiaries of the alliance between MPA and TREAMIS" said Viney Kaushal, Chairman of TREAMIS.
