Junior Scholars Academy (JSA)

Curriculum

The classes at the Junior Scholars Academy are designed to provide you with challenging content that is not usually a part of the junior high curriculum. The Academy’s instructors have been selected for their advanced knowledge of their subject areas and for their ability to recognize and meet the academic needs of high ability students.

No grades are given in JSA. We assume that all participants are motivated and academically talented. Students will receive individualized feedback from teachers as part of the Academy experience. The Academy is dedicated to developing a scholarly community and full participation by all members is necessary. If you cannot attend for the full week, you will not be eligible for the program
