Workshops consist of twelve, 75-minute periods, totaling 15 hours of instruction per session. With guidance from our Curriculum Advisors, instructors design and submit detailed curriculum plans for their two workshops throughout the winter and spring. Although instructors have an advisor to help develop their curriculum, the final workshops are products of the instructor's own ideas, imagination, enthusiasm, and experience. During the extra-curricular parts of the day, instructors lead athletics, art activities, and discussion groups. Instructors also lead students on off-campus trips such as whale watches, beach trips, baseball games, concerts, theater performances, and much more.
Instructors also play a major role in residential and day student life.
Office Staff duties range from running the in-house bank, to answering telephones, to being in charge of the office during evening hours, to overseeing our transportation system for day students, or doing any other of a variety of office tasks needed to keep the Program going. At the Intermediate and Senior Programs, Office Staff are generally assigned to an RA role and are involved in extracurricular activities and weekend trips. At the Intermediate and Senior Programs, Office Staff may also apply to work in the office and teach one workshop. Other positions are available throughout the summer. Learn more about these during our informational meetings.
