Students identify academic courses that align with the vision and 'pathway' that they wish to pursue in high school. Each Global Scholar should consider areas of interest and should spend time understanding each course through a global lens. Students will reflect on these courses in digital portfolios over the three year program. Some examples of courses that Global Scholars have reflected on include Marine Biology, Psychology, and Ceramics.
CAPStone is an advanced inquiry-based research seminar. As a cohort, CAPS students pursue a researchable question through quantitative and qualitative research methods along with a substantial field-based inquiry project. CAPS offers students a chance to create an independent academic experience, with the focus on authentic inquiry. The goal of the CAPS is for students to merge their various interests, curiosities, and passions with their academic and intellectual lives and take shape through Original Field Research, an Inquiry Paper, a web-based Project Portfolio, and a TED-style Community Presentation that communicates the culmination of the experience. Students who enroll in CAPS will receive 1 credit of English.
