Academic Programs

Centenary Summer Scholars gives rising 8th–12th grade students the opportunity to immerse themselves in one course of study for a full week. Students may sign up for multiple sessions, choosing a different course each session; students may also benefit from multiple weeks in the same course. Courses are detailed on the following pages.

Each curricula is designed around student involvement. Teachers incorporate students’ needs and interests into the lessons so that each class becomes a unique exploration. All courses are hands-on and project-based. In all courses, students practice the critical skills of collaboration, critique, project-planning and presentation.

Please note: in three courses–Fashion Design, Television Production, and Computer Programming & Game Design–we offer a different focus each week. These are highlighted in the descriptions.
