标题: 【2018综合营】美国探索学校耶鲁大学项目，学术及活动综合营（9-11年级）



该夏令营项目由美国探索学校自1977年开始举办，迄今已有40多年历史。美国探索学校是一家非营利性组织，1976年成立，创始人是Ann和Arnie Singal。





探索学校的暑期项目由丰富的课程、活动、旅行等组成，营造了一个独特的、安全的、学习的环境。营员来自全美国40多个州以及全世界超过65个国家，在这里可以结交新朋友，发现自己的特殊兴趣爱好以及能力，度过一个好玩有趣的假期。那些聪明、有求知欲的年轻人聚集到一起，参加这里1-3周的活动，营员年龄在7-17岁之间。探索学校的项目鼓励营员尝试新领域，找到自己在什么领域有特殊的热情。



探索学校的暑期项目全部集中在三个学校开展，位于纽黑文的耶鲁大学(9-11年级在读)、位于波士顿的卫斯理学院(7-8年级在读)、波士顿惠顿学院(3-6年级在读)，除了三周的综合营以外，还有三周的英语学习营，两周的专业营，以及单周的迷你营。

下面介绍耶鲁大学的综合营，为9-11年级（15-17岁）学生开设。



【特别说明】：
该项目不是为了获得学分或者考试分数的学校课程，而是希望让学生们忽略评价体系和考核分数，更加关注自己的兴趣和热情所在。项目适合那些对这三周营地三周生活能够持有足够的热情，喜欢忙碌的、充实的日程安排，充分参与到活动中的学生。



项目缺点，比其它同类项目更贵一些；第二期中国学生较多。另外，国际学生需要面试，如果面试通过，入营后还将进行再次考核，项目方认为英文水平不足以应付所选课程的（比如写作、辩论等英文应用比较多并且高的课程），将为学生调整到其他英文应用程度不高的课程中，或者在家长同意的情况下转去ESL课程班级（额外收费500美元），所以这个不确定性需要申请者能够接受。

    【学生和家长评论】：
  • Julia's 8 years at camp were, without adoubt, life-changing. The open and accepting atmosphere that the camp marketingmaterials promote is real. After many efforts to find summer activities for herthat all fell flat, camp delivered everything it promised and more. Year afteryear, we have watched Julia grow as a person. She developed a broad andinclusive world view through her interactions with kids from many places andwith many perspectives and life experiences.

  • My daughter grew leaps and bounds in selfconfidence. She ventured beyond her comfort level to experience new andexciting things. Moreover, she did a little forward thinking which enabled herto learn things about herself that she was unaware of and encouraged her to notto limit herself.
  • I've always felt that there's somethingreally magical about camp. There are very few scenarios that I can think ofwhere it is possible to walk up to a random person and start a conversationwithout any awkwardness. Not only is this possible at camp, in a way, it isexpected; everyone wants to meet as many people as they can. The kids who makethe conscious decision to attend camp are the type of people who will inventthe next Facebook, put humans on Mars, or become the leader of their country.Not only are these people intellectually curious and motivated, they have theinterpersonal skills to work with a group and accomplish a task. As much as Iloved my classes, what has stuck with me more than anything are the greatfriendships I made at camp. Having the opportunity to meet people from all overthe world also really amazed me. For the first time, I was meeting people fromthese "far away places" I had learned about in school.
  • Thank you so much for providing a safe andcomfortable environment in which to explore and try new things. I know Jamesbenefits greatly from this program, and we are grateful.
  • 6 years, 11 sessions, a million memories. Thisprogram changed who I am.
  • Camp has been the highlight of Shannon'slife. It has opened up a window to the world for her that quite possibly savedher sanity ... if not her life. Not everyone is cut out for small towns, smallschools or small ideas and Shannon NEEDED something like camp so that she couldsee the light at the end of the tunnel, that there is something else out therefor her. I think the camp has taught her to not be afraid; afraid of beingalone, afraid of being far from home, afraid to meet new people but mostimportantly to afraid of getting stuck in place.
  • I cannot say enough positive things aboutthis amazing program! I have recommended it to everyone I know. My youngerdaughters are interested in attending as well. It really gives high schoolstudents a true taste of college, with just enough supervision and parametersso that they stay safe and are not overwhelmed. We are looking forward to nextsummer!
  • This was my son Yared's second summer at camp.Each time he has stepped off the return plane from Boston, not only can he notstop talking about his summer at Explo, but he can't stop talking aboutreturning the next summer (still). This means so much to me, especially as asingle working parent, to know deep-down that my child is safe and exactlywhere he is at his best and happiest for three weeks whole weeks. This summer,in particular, Yared returned home with a new strong sense of how to take careof himself (without my having to say so) and of showing care and concern forothers. Living with and negotiating a space with a roommate has also been afantastic area of growth for him. And not only did he come home with a stronginterest in his chosen subjects—he participated in Model U.N. this summer andnow can't wait to participate in high school—but new interests, as well: Nextyear Yared wants to study medicine. His interest in and pursuit of studyingMandarin is a direct result of his living with roommates from China bothsummers. How fantastic is that! As a parent I couldn't be happier—or feelluckier. Thank you!
  • The experience offered at camp is anexponentially valuable experience. What a gift to expose kids to many differentpeople from many different geographical areas and gaining the benefit of beingexposed to different cultures, attitudes, religions and thought processeswithout having had to travel worldwide. The opportunity to engage with oneanother in an environment of their peers without the influence of their parentsallows them to come together based solely on mutual respect and interest whichis not colored by biases, world issues, or conflict.
  • Thank you for providing my daughter withanother amazing summer experience. The amount she learned and experienced in a3 week period of time is unreal. I cannot say enough about how great I thinkthis program is, for promoting responsibility and self dependence, learning newthings and skills, experiencing life from the eyes of friends from othercountries, and for all around having a lot of fun! Thank you.
  • It was a lot of fun for Ryan and he camehome happy which is gold to me. He also formed very intense friendships, moreso than at school, probably bc they just have more time together and morerelaxed. It is sort of like the college experience where bc of living,eatingtogether, strong friendships are formed.
  • We are SO GRATEFUL for the scholarshipFelicia received this year. She would not have been able to attend without it. Thisprogram has been the most significant educational experience of her life, shesays, and has nothing but incredible, warm memories of all three years inattendance. She would be a tremendous marketing ambassador for the program, ifyou need her. She truly loves it, and I love seeing her so happy. We are very,very thankful for all you have done for us.
  • You all did a fantastic job, Hannah stayedfor many evening events and took advantage of the field trips and overnight aswell. She made great friends from the Boston area and overseas as well. It wasa whirlwind and she loved every minute of it. She cannot wait to attend Wellesleynext year. You and your staff went above and beyond our expectations and mindyou we came from a private day camp as well. Thank you to all.
  • Ortho was everything that my daughter hadhoped for and MORE! To say that she had an incredible experience is anunderstatement. She has always been interested in orthopedics, but now she iseven more motivated, determined, and passionate about pursuing a career in thisfield. Thank you for inspiring my daughter!
  • I was very emotional when I came to pick upmy child. It was amazing to observe every child around her giving her a hug andsinging. My child felt love at the camp. I truly like it and appreciate thecamp and the staff even more.
  • Mamoun attended English camp at Wellesleyand has come back to us as a changed boy. In addition to impressively improvinghis English, he is so much more mature, independent, and confident. Usuallyprone to homesickness, he only spoke to us three times during his entire stayand when we came to pick him up by the end of the session, he was crying as hedidn't want to leave his friends. Thank you! Thanks to the amazing staff,Mamoun will definitely come back.
  • I attended the program over 20 years ago,and I am thrilled to see how the program has evolved. And my daughter justloved it — this year even more than last.
  • She loved all aspects of it. She told menumerous times that the staff were super nice. She loved meeting new friendsfrom all over the world. She loved the independence and still talks aboutwishing to be back at camp!
  • I can't say enough good things about theprogram. This was the second year my daughter attended, and her first timeboarding (both sessions), even though we only reside about 30 minutes away. Thestaff and the curriculum are amazing(!) and provide a great opportunity to theparticipants for personal and intellectual growth. My daughter had a wonderfultime and met students from many places around the world. She is counting thedays until she returns next summer and is already planning to participate in yourprogram at Yale and Wellesley. Keep up the good work!
