Social justice in the Dominican Republic, multimedia journalism in New Hampshire, sustainability in Montreal, the community of the North Country. This year students at White Mountain studied subjects in places across the world.
At White Mountain, we don’t think the classroom is the only place to learn. Our Field Course program demonstrates our commitment to learning outside the classroom. Students at WMS have the chance to immerse themselves in a week-long, off-campus Field Course each semester. These unique experiences allow in-depth, academic exploration of a specific topic in an authentic setting.
