海外的领导 Program 概述
With its rich maritime history, Charleston offers the perfect backdrop for an academic program centered on tall-ship sail training. 十大最好的网赌平台’s 海外的领导 Program has distinguished it自我 as one of the School’s signature programs building leadership skills and a deep love for one’s natural surroundings.
上学校 students apply for the competitive program each spring and participate the following academic year. Their experience includes learning about Charleston’s maritime history, 天文导航, 海洋生物学, and the study of the classics, including Plato’s seafaring credo, “船, 的队友, 自我.” The class culminates in a week-long voyage crewing a tall ship along the East Coast.
The program provides a transformational experience that instills confidence in girls. A national survey recently released shows girls’ confidence nose-dives 30% in middle school, which affects the rest of their lives.* 十大最好的网赌平台’s 海外的领导 Program combats this directly by instilling confidence at a vulnerable time in a girl’s life and preparing her for long-term success. It is an excellent example of the inquiry-based, experiential learning that 十大最好的网赌平台 believes cultivates 自我-reliant, 独立的思想家.
