A TRIAD of Learning at Providence School
Upper School Students Take Advantage of Two-Week Intensive Program
For years, Providence School’s popular “Beyond the Classroom” program has connected students of all grade levels (preschool-12) to tours, retreats, and adventures that blend academics with real-world experience, from historical trips through California and Washington, D.C., to gardening and whitewater rafting.
This year, for its 9th to 12th graders, Providence added TRIAD (Travel, Research, Investigate, Apprentice, Discover), a two-week intensive study program that encourages students to practice their passions in-depth and to home in on their interests and aptitudes.
“It’s an idea we’ve been batting around for about four years,” said Rod Meadth, principal of the middle and upper schools. “Indirectly because of the pandemic, we realized how quickly we can pivot. And we were in the mood to change things up, to come out of 2020 with some initiative.”
