Experiential Learning at Marianapolis Preparatory School, Thompson, Connecticut USA
Experiential Learning at Marianapolis is woven into all areas of school life. Whether it is a weekend Experiential Learning Program trip going back in time to Old Sturbridge Village or a week-long LEAP Week trip to Yellowstone Park, students are learning by doing.
Through LEAP Week, small groups of students explore a specific topic, project, or adventure. Students might find themselves on a simulated mission in Mars at NASA’s Space Camp, getting their SCUBA certification in Florida, planting mangrove saplings in Thailand, or learning how to film and edit a news package at the New York Film Academy’s Broadcast Journalism School.
Students have the opportunity to explore a different part of the United States or immerse themselves in a new activity such as movie making, food blogging, or interior design. With over 20 course offerings in various fields of study, students have multiple options to explore their interests. LEAP Week courses are offered in The Arts, Core Study, Personal Challenge, Mission, and Cultural Immersion areas.
The Experiential Learning (EL) Program is an exciting opportunity for students to continue learning outside of the classroom. EL trips take place throughout the school year, typically on Sundays. Students will travel all around New England, learning things such as paddle boarding, surfing, glass blowing, welding, and much more.
Fees for Marianapolis Preparatory School US$ 72,467 for 2020-2021
