Minimester

Minimester occurs in February over the course of four school days and is a valued piece of the whole education of a JHCS student. Minimester provides curricular enrichment and skill acquisition as students engage with local experts to explore areas for deeper study or possible career interest. Like Fall Trips, participation in Minimester is an integral part of the JHCS experience and a graduation requirement.

We are grateful for community members who are willing to share their experience and expertise with our students. If you, or someone you know, might be willing to help design or facilitate a Minimester course, reach out to the Dean of Teaching and Learning, David Grossman (dgrossman@jhcschool.org)
