Summer Enrichment 2017- AP World History
Our 4 day Summer Enrichment boot camp was a huge success because of 35 eager and hard working students. They did a great job and learned a lot about the Ancient World! We learned about the Paleolithic and the Neolithic Periods. Then how early societies emerged from large rivers valleys and developed into settlements called Early Complex Societies: Mesopotamia, Indus, China and Egypt. We did reading, writing, presenting, debating, outlining, brainstorming and then created artifacts from the period. The final culmination was a museum activity! Looking forward to the new year!

Elafiti Islands, Croatia
We traveled to the three most beautiful islands of the coast of Dubrovnik- Kolocep, Lopud and Sipan known as the Elafiti islands. These beautiful islands are covered with lush Mediterranean and subtropical vegetation and used to be the favorite places as summer residence of Dubrovnik.
We had a traditional lunch at the captain's house and enjoyed the pure beauty of the island life.
