Electives   

The following electives are available to our students. For detailed information about a course, see its course page.

Most courses are offered to rising seniors first, then to rising juniors, and so on; so that if a course fills, the student who cannot take it this year has another opportunity to take it later.

Students may also register for music lessons. Read more.
