Oliverian Summer Session Schedule
Seven Week Session with a Unique 3 – 1 – 3 Model
The Summer Session is a seven week program, (June 26th - August 13th) with the first three and the final three weeks devoted to intensive credit recovery combined with stewardship, adventure, and the arts. During the first three weeks, students will help choose and design two summer-long stewardship projects and an exciting one week mid-session adventure experience. The choice of our adventure week will be based on considerations of interest, inspiration, stewardship and arts opportunities. Options include:
- Canoeing on the Connecticut River
- Sea Kayaking in Acadia National Park in Maine
- Rafting and Climbing in Tennessee
- Snorkeling in the Dominican Republic
Our program emphasizes choice. The Oliverian School believes each student is unique and comes to the Summer Session with different needs. Therefore, the Oliverian Summer Session emphasizes choice, allowing students to sign-up for the core academic classes they want and need, and also to choose from a variety of integrated experiential activities to round out and highlight their Summer Session schedules. While every student will have a full and structured day, they will have choices and great variety, moving from rock climbing or horseback riding to lunch to intensive math tutoring or an in depth English literature and writing class.
Academic courses run Monday through Thursday. Mornings are focused, individualized, and targeted toward academic study and support. Afternoons are dedicated to more experiential learning based on adventure, stewardship, and the arts. Fridays and weekends are reserved for off-campus experiential learning and recreational activities that students will help choose and plan.
