Senior Fellows Presentations
This year's Severn Fellows presentations are set for Tuesday, May 31 at 7:30p in Price Auditorium. This is a must-see event and everyone's welcome!
Initiated for the 2008-2009 school year, the Severn Fellows program invites a select group of Severn School seniors to transcend the academic program and develop a year-long intellectual pursuit that reflects their growing passions. Students are encouraged to demonstrate their ability to synthesize ideas and to create new fields of inquiry in the application of several skills and knowledge bases that they have developed in their time at Severn.
The Fellows are selected through an application process in the spring of their junior year and work on their projects throughout their senior year. They work with a mentor, often from outside Severn School, who is familiar with their field of inquiry. At the end of the year, they present their work to the Severn community.
Severn Fellows enter into this experience with the understanding that their project will receive neither a grade nor academic credit; they explore their passions in the purest of regards and know that the most satisfying reward comes in meeting goals and in knowing that they have done something well. The presentations at the end of the Fellows year, then, simply represent the belief that knowledge and experience once gained, should be celebrated and shared.
