Arts & Humanities Summer Program: July 4 – 17

This two-week summer program is dedicated to younger students, ages 14 – 16. Encouraging a harmonious balance of intellect and creativity, the Arts & Humanities Summer Program at St Stephen’s School offers students the opportunity to explore both academically and artistically in a program tailored to their individual interests and talents. Students in this program are enrolled in one core course, a language class (either Italian or Latin), and one or more elective courses. Summer 2010 core courses include Renaissance Art, and Ancient Roman Topography (a St. Stephen’s School signature course). Both courses are held on-site in the city of Rome, allowing students to visit the significant monuments and sites in person, and to attain an in-depth knowledge of the city for the period in question. The 2010 elective courses include Creative Writing, 2D/3D Studio Art, Music Appreciation, and Dance. Student exhibitions and special performances will be held at the conclusion of the summer school session. A trip to Pompeii and other sites in the south of Italy is included.
