Enrichment, Genius Hour & Capstone Project
Enrichment and Genius Hour
The Syracuse Latin School implements Enrichment Clusters as part of the School-Wide Enrichment Model (SEM). The SEM focuses on enrichment for all students through high levels of engagement and the use of enjoyable and challenging learning experiences constructed around students’ interests, learning styles, and preferred modes of expression. We offer courses during each semester of the school year. Students have the opportunity to choose topics they would like to learn more about.
