AS students of a multicultural school, three high schoolers reflect on the uniqueness of their student lives, offering insight into how their third-culture-kid (TCK) experience has helped them be skillful leaders working as student council members.

'Even though I am different from those around me, I always have felt a sense of belonging and 'home' in the Philippines,' said Christopher Helwig, a TCK attending Faith Academy, an international school in Manila. He is a senior who has studied in this country for 11 years after moving from the United States.
