Interested in learning more about the idea of a gap year for your child after high school graduation?
Gap years have been defined as "a semester or year of experiential learning, typically taken after high school and prior to career or post-secondary education, in order to deepen one's practical, professional, and personal awareness" (Gap Year Association website). Gap years have proven academic and personal benefits with colleges reporting that students who take Gap years have higher GPA’s, are more likely to graduate in 4 years, are less likely to have discipline issues, and experience better social/emotional health. Learn about Head of School Dr. Jessie Barrie's gap year experience, why she thinks a gap year is a valuable consideration for students and families, and to learn of the opportunities and research supporting the value of gap years.
