PURSUIT OF PERSPECTIVES 1976 It is the belief of the Upper School Faculty that each student should have an opportunity to gain different per- spectives in the academic field. For this reason, the Pursuit of Perspectives Program was initiated at Phoenix Country Day School two years ago. The purpose of this program maintains the academic standards that would be expected throughout the year, however, the approach is one that offers the student a greater independence and a more practical relationship to his study. The Pursuit of Perspectives is a three-pronged program. It offers: 1. Vocational Study--the student may worl and study with a professional in the Phoenix area. This vocational study may be directed toward business, law, medicine, government, or education. 2. Innovative Academics--the student may choose a campus program that would offer him the choice of curriculum that could not be offered during the school year. These courses are designed from an interest perspective as well as an intellectual one. 3. Travel--the student may be engaged in a travel program through the Language Department. The travel program is offered on the basis of student interest, and includes the study of Spanish and French in an area of the world where these are the native language. The entire month of January is devoted to this program. We believe it to be a valuable one for our students and a nec- essary one for the development of future curriculum in- novations. Students and Faculty have been involved in the offerings and organization of the Pursuit of Perspectives. 81
