The Postgraduate (PG) Program at the Knox School is open to qualified, motivated students who wish to take advantage of the benefits of a “gap year” between high school graduation and matriculation into college and can meet the admissions standards of 博彩网址大全学校. Prospective PG students are often seeking greater academic opportunities and another year to boost their grades. Some students need more time to focus on building their portfolios if they decide to pursue a career in the arts, and others simply want more time to mature physically, emotionally and socially to ensure that they are thoroughly prepared to meet and overcome the challenges that make up a successful college experience. Regardless of what brings a PG student to 博彩网址大全学校, what is certain is that he or she will leave a more developed, experienced individual with a greater sense of self.
Knox PG students are valuable members of the senior class and are expected to integrate fully into the school community and embrace the leadership opportunities that are an inevitable part of 博彩网址大全学校 experience. PG students graduate along with the members of the senior class and receive a high school diploma from 博彩网址大全学校.
