The Penn Program in Vermont - Discussion at the Varnum

Past event
May 3, 2017, 7 to 8:30 PM

Join us for a discussion and documentary about the Penn Program in Vermont:

What is the purpose of education? Education should be an opportunity to explore a variety of interests and topics. It should be joyful, meaningful, challenging, and connected directly to real life. Education should push us to be our best, give us the support and opportunities to follow our interests and explore pressing questions, and should directly help us improve our personal lives and our communities. Education is about more than a job, it's about our entire life.

What is the Penn Program? The Penn is a year-long (or multi-year) opportunity to explore education experientially. It is a program for high school students who are invested in their education, their community, and are willing to work hard. It's a chance to work on big projects, tackle big issues and concerns, and to better oneself by contributing to the community. It is a day program that includes multiple travel experiences.
