What is the curriculum?

Classes

You will be attending classes for 2 to 2 1/2 hours in the morning and the afternoon.  They are stimulating and fun - with no pressure.  Courses may require some time outside the classroom for reading, research, and working on class projects with other students.  No tests, grades, or credits are given to 9th-grade students.  Teachers may receive PTSB credits or UW graduate school credit.  Classes meet four days a week.
