GRACE暑期课程

GRoton Accelerate Challenge Enrich (GRACE) provides an opportunity for Groton students to use the summer after Third Form (9th grade) to accelerate their academic progress.
GRACE promotes flexibility within the Groton curriculum and helps all students reach their full potential. 对于一些, GRACE will accelerate access to our most advanced courses; for others, 它将填补准备的空白,为成功奠定基础. 
 
The optional four-week program prepares GRACE Scholars for the rigors of Upper School, 同时也认识到夏季娱乐和休闲的重要性. Each winter, current Third Formers receive information about applying to GRACE. 

This year's GRACE program will run from Sunday, June 23 to Friday, July 19, 2024.

学术课程与目标

每次只让自己沉浸在一两个科目中, GRACE Scholars can make meaningful academic progress in just four weeks. Students typically take either two A courses, one B course, or an A and a B course. Occasionally, two B courses may be taken, but only with special permission. A courses meet for an hour and a half each weekday; B courses meet for three hours each weekday, 周六再加一个小时.

在免费期间, students will have the opportunity to take enrichment classes in art and theater.
