What do students do after classes end in the afternoon?
Governor’s School provides many options for afternoon and evening hours that complement and extend the work of classes. Major outside speakers who are active contributors to current knowledge in their fields address students once a week. Student performances in dance, drama, and music electrify both campuses. Daily optional seminars or electives range from the Aesthetics of Choreography (dance faculty) to a discussion of Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time (natural science faculty). Several different film series offer not only provocative films, but discussions that deepen the understanding of the particular film and sharpen the ability to see and interpret any film.
