During the week, students take two classes a day, spending about 5-6 hours per day in the classroom or on short field excursions. One day per week (in each of the first two weeks) is devoted to an all-day co-curricular activity, such as a field trip for biological research or a trip to an opera and art museum. On weekends and during the evenings, students attend concerts, lectures, and performances, engage in extracurricular games, service activities, and talent shows, and participate in personal development forums and seminars.
