Journeys to MVRHS

Some students have traveled great distances to move to Martha’s Vineyard.  They bring with them diverse experiences and memories of schools that are similar in some ways, and vastly different in others.  Friends, Oshantay Waite, Nikol Asenova, and Chanaporn Eksiri have come from Jamaica, Bulgaria, and Thailand.  On April 3rd, 2015, they told their stories. They talked about what led them to move to MV, what it was like where they came from, what they miss, and their hopes and dreams.

Never having left the US before or flown alone, Livie went to Ghana for 3 weeks as part of Global Leadership Adventures. The goal of GLA is to expand student views of the world to different cultures.

Find out what it’s like to step outside of your comfort zone and do something that you normally would never do!
