Eighth Grade Class Research Residency
The Research Residency is a two-week curricular capstone program in coordination with sister schools, previously in Suzhou, China and currently in Taiwan, as part of the 8th grade immersion students' year-long Chinese Culture & Society course organized and led by PPS teacher David Kojo Hakam. MIP students engage in field studies, home stays, and produce a bilingual video documentary of their experiences presented at the annual Capstone event.
FINANCING
旅行筹款
Shu Ren supports students and families to prepare for the costs associated with international travel. The Research Residency is fully funded by student families through events and/or individual contributions and membership drives held to defray the out-of-pocket expenses. Contributions are placed in tax-deductible class savings accounts managed by Shu Ren beginning in Kindergarten to accrue over time until that class reaches 8th grade.
There are a number of ways that contributions are made to class saving accounts, including the Shu Ren Gala, Direct Donations, Class Specific Events and Activities, and an 8th grade Funding Ministry class.
