Welcome
|
|
By offering students from across the globe to be a part of the Pius XI community, all students – domestic and international – broaden their world perspective by developing an understanding and appreciation for different cultures. In doing so, students have a deeper appreciation for their own culture and an understanding of the issues that are facing the global world today.
All international students seek the same thing as our entire student population – academic rigor, inspiring extracurricular engagement, and faith-based moral character development. Over 30 students from four different countries – China, Vietnam, Ghana and Japan – attend Pius XI as International Students. |

WIA – A Unique Opportunity to Bring the Globe into the Classroom
|
The Wisconsin International Academy (WIA) is a leading partner in Pius XI’s International Student placement. WIA is an innovative, residential program for Chinese students studying at American high schools.
By partnering with Pius XI Catholic High School, WIA provides opportunities for students to develop their English skills and to learn about American culture through both classroom learning and interactive extra-curricular activities. Pius XI has welcomed international students wishing to study abroad for anywhere between one year and all four years of high school. Students have come from all across the globe, including Spain, China, Vietnam, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Japan and Ghana. |
