Our Approach to Learning

The Chesapeake Watershed Semester is a unique opportunity for motivated high school juniors or seniors to join a talented community of learners. Students will immerse themselves in the study and restoration of the Chesapeake Bay for one semester.  Through dynamic and diverse field-study Expeditions, we travel the region meeting with community members and conducting research.  While in residence on our waterfront campus, you will take honors and AP level classes while maintaining an intense, hands-on engagement with the natural environment.
