Humanities and Arts Signature Program
Thomas S. Wootton High School
Program Description:
This challenging and innovative program is designed for students who are
passionate about literature, film, history, languages, art, and/or performance. The
students form a cohort in the 9th-10th grades through special enriched sections
of English and Social Studies, which include special field trips, speakers, and
artists-in-residence workshops. Students select a specific but flexible course
of study with a Humanities or Arts Focus, and also complete an Off-Campus
Experience and a Senior Independent Project. By the end of the program,
students have polished oral presentation skills and are able to complete the
high-level academic research and writing expected by universities.
