Winterim is designed to offer students an experiential learning experience. Our goal is to encourage a love of learning. This is accomplished by smaller student groups working closely with a faculty member in various non-traditional experiential courses. Winterim provides opportunities to fulfill the school’s mission through exploration in academics, fine arts, international travel, hands-on learning, and athletics. Enrichment opportunities are also offered through cultural exchanges, community service, and internships. Participation in Winterim is required for all upper school students.
Goals of Winterim
- To offer a different environment in which learn concepts generally taught in the classroom.
- To encourage a love of exploring and learning new ideas, cultures, and concepts that are outside of a student’s comfort zone.
- To strengthen student/faculty relationships through small groups and alternate settings.
- To expand a student’s worldview by offering coursework that will explore new cultures, ideas, and skills.
