Academic Concentrations
hero-banner
Foxcroft’s Academic Concentrations program allows a student to focus her studies at our school in one of several specific areas, above and beyond the requirements for graduation, and to learn outside of the traditional classroom experience.
Each student may explore the various opportunities that comprise the overall Academic Concentrations program, even if she is not pursuing the diploma designation. Those opportunities include individual classes, internships, community service, and in some cases, independent research/culminating presentations.
The Academic Concentrations program affords the unique opportunity for students to pursue deep learning in and out of the classroom in an area of passion for them.
— Cathy McGehee, Head of School
Academic Concentrations
are offered in four areas:
Fine Arts
Humanities
STEM
Integrated Studies
