The Curriculum Review
Goal: $500,000

Exeter is completing its first school-wide curriculum review in roughly 20 years. The review has reaffirmed Harkness teaching and Exeter's rigorous skill-based curriculum, while also identifying enhancements to be made to keep pace with our changing world. In general, the recommendations focus on computer science and algorithmic thinking; learning through community service; and engaging students to think about powerful forces shaping our times, including globalization, environmental questions, technology and cultural pluralism in the United States.

The faculty is currently refining its recommendations and beginning to develop specific programs that will enrich the curriculum. This component of The Exeter Initiatives will prepare the school financially to implement new programs stemming from the review. It will also allow departments to pursue continuous curricular assessment and innovation for the future.
