DragonWeek
DragonWeek lets you take a breath, engage with something new, and explore new interests.
Following winter break, you'll return to school in January for DragonWeek, a special intersession between first and second semester. Each student selects one course or experience to pursue for the week, providing an enriched experience beyond the traditional curriculum. DragonWeek gives both students and teachers the opportunity to pursue personal interests through ungraded, immersive experiences in the arts, humanities, science, and technology.
