Experiential Learning at CFS

Experiential Learning offers Church Farm School students formative experiences that offer hands-on, real-world learning experiences in our classrooms, out in the surrounding community and far beyond our campus. 

We are focused on three key areas that we believe will benefit our students during their time at CFS and beyond! 

  • Project-Based Learning
  • Service Learning
  • Experiences Outside the Ordinary
    • Intellectual Immersion Summer- or semester-long opportunities for Church Farm scholars to enroll in a renowned college, university or research institution for intensive, college-level study of a specialist subject like physics, political science or marine biology.
    • Internships and Externships Grounded in a relationship with a corporate or nonprofit partner, these working experiences introduce students to a given profession or industry, placing particular emphasis on the building of key professional skills, core management principles and networking know-how.
    • Global Citizenship International experiences, whether lasting a few weeks or an entire semester, open our students eyes to the world beyond America’s shores, offering them insight into cultural norms, building their second language skills, and giving them the opportunity to study things like diplomacy or global markets in a novel setting. 
Current partners in Experiences Outside the Ordinary include: 
  • Student Diplomacy Corps 
  • High Mountain Institute 
  • The Island School 
  • The University of Pennsylvania Summer Program 
  • Yale University 
  • The Experiment in International Living
