Placed-Based Curriculum at Christchurch School

Placed-Based Curriculum at Christchurch School

by Peter Baron & Brian Fisher, AdmissionsQuest

Nancy Nolan, Assistant Head of School for Admission and Marketing at Christchurch School (Christchurch, VA) talks to us about Christchurch's 'placed-based curriculum.'

Placed curriculum works to connect theoretical/concept learning to the physical world. For Christchurch students and faculty, this means taking your learning and practices to the water. Located along the Rappahannock River, adjacent to the Chesapeake Bay, students connect to the water in the arts, humanities, sciences, and athletics
