8th Grade Symposium
On March 7th, our 8th grade students will participate in a half day symposium event on campus which invites them into deeper intellectual friendship with one another.
This special day will give students a taste of the high school Integrated Humanities Program experience: the opportunity to seminar on a rich classical text, hear a lecture delivered on the topic of that reading, and to hear from a panel of high-school students about their experience of reading and discussing great texts within the community. More details coming soon.
