Winterim 2017
Unique to Brimmer, every Upper School student traverses the boundaries of the School to explore our local, national, or international communities through the biennual Winterim Program. The trips allow students to experience other cultures while enriching academic learning and providing service opportunities.
Why Winterim?
In order for students to be committed participants in a global community, they need to know first-hand and up-close what that global community looks like.
It’s all in the preparation.
The Winterim experience begins in the classroom. Working with faculty in small trip groups, students research locations, share information, build relationships, and define the curricular and cultural context for their chosen trip during weekly Winterim classes. This pre-study lays the groundwork for truly meaningful travel experiences.
And away we go!
This year, students, faculty, and administrators are visiting Japan, Vietnam & Cambodia, Switzerland, Ireland, England, Cuba, & Boston.
