The Capstone of the Regents Education
What does this look like at Regents?
-
Harkness Tables
Much of our students' learning is around oval Harkness Tables in discussion (and sometimes argument!) with one another and teachers.
-
Humanities
Our students work and rework themes written on subjects in the Humanities until both the form and substance of their thoughts are eloquent and persuasive.
-
Math & Science
Even in math and science courses, students learn to express their understanding of difficult concepts with words as well as through successful calculation and experiment.
-
Senior Thesis
In what has become a meaningful rite of passage, each senior, in public, presents and defends a researched thesis before a panel of informed judges.
You can watch the thesis presentations here
-
The "Great Conversation"
Our students examine the Western tradition of art, history, literature, theology and philosophy chronologically, recognizing the "Great Conversation" of the ages-and considering what it means to participate in it.
