Miniterm Planning!

I wanted to give you all a heads up that students are now beginning to prepare for miniterm.  There was a required miniterm course fair today during the meeting block where students had to look into different options.  Basically, miniterm is a week and a half long period in which students do not take normal classes and instead focus on a special study option.  There are 3 basic options for students--they can either participate in a course on campus (teachers offer a wide variety), participate in an off campus trip, or propose an independent project to study a topic of their own design.  Some of the courses and all of the off campus trips involve an extra expense, so please be sure to talk to your daughter about what she is interested in doing for miniterm and a possible budget for her miniterm experience.  Miniterm in general is a little more relaxed than normal and can actually be a lot of fun, so it is something to look forward to.
