Advanced Global Citizenship
Advanced Global Citizenship consists of Speech and Debate, Model UN, Model APEC, World Quest, and TED Talks.

Matt Buongiorno explained AGC as following: "Advanced Global Citizenship offers things conventional curriculum cannot, such as an opportunity to work with pressing international issues outside the classroom and beyond the island," and Justin Brown added that it "broadens their awareness and understanding of international affairs in an exciting, competitive way."
