 The Freshman Experience

The Freshman Experience is a four-day program that provides students the opportunity to experience a Retreat, an outdoor Science lesson, an Art immersion, and a sample of Service Learning while simultaneously working each day with a different group of their classmates. This unique opportunity broadens the scope of learning for ninth grade students. The program builds community within the freshman class as well as with faculty members outside the traditional classroom setting, and broadens the scope of learning for freshmen.
