YOUR YEAR IMAGINED

Be the architect of your own experience.

At Miss Porter’s School, our curriculum is designed to provide the foundational education to chart your own path toward making a difference in an ever-changing world.

Foundational courses are taught with an interdisciplinary approach. Students begin with traditional sequencing in STEM and humanities, while allowing ample space and time to personalize their education through electives.

Change is our constant; our courses change as the world changes.

Miss Porter’s School operates on a modular block schedule. Rather than taking six year-long classes, students take different classes each trimester, and classes meet in an extended block every day. This allows students to be more focused and engaged with the course material while maintaining a healthy balance of homework and co-curriculars.

Developing foundational skills with an interdisciplinary approach

Students begin their journey at Porter’s with courses in core disciplines that develop the skills and habits needed for academic success. Integrated humanities and science courses provide a strong foundation for the depth that comes later in the Advanced Interdisciplinary Seminars (AIS). Students learn a full year of language and math in trimester long courses. Our block schedule also allows for an elective of the student’s choice while maintaining a healthy balance.
