January 2017
Bitney Prep introduced a new program in January 2013 called Intersession. Many universities and college preparatory high schools across the nation offer some variation of an intersession. Our program aligns nicely with the burgeoning movement towards increased relevance and personalized learning in schools.
Intersession 2017 will take place over four days in January, nestled between the first and second semesters. The program is designed to supplement the core academic program with an interesting array of mini-course offerings and hands-on workshops. The electives for the week are posted below.
