The Modular Study Group
The Modular Study Group is a concept that has operated with great success for the past 10+ years.

Two versions
One week, Nine times a year
OR
Two weeks, Three times a year
Version 1.0 (tested for over 10 years)
Students begin assignments in late August. Two weeks later they attend the school for one week. After the week together students return home. They continue working on assignments provided and supported by the school for three weeks. They then return to the school for another session. Time away from the school is comprised of post-work and pre-work. This cycle repeats itself nine times and ends in early to mid-May. After the final module together no assignments are given except makeup work and possible AP exams.
2750 USD including boarding

Version 2.0 (currently in development)
The curriculum and overall schedule is identical to version 1 to the left. Students travel in to a central location 3 times a year for two weeks of contact time with peers and focused instruction. During the ensuing 6-8 weeks they do assignments and interact with their teachers. Support and assessment will be similar to version 1.0. More online interaction in virtual classroooms will be standard.
