Deborah Keehn Black, Assistant Head for Curriculum and Teaching

Dear Visitors,

As you browse through this site, reading the text and looking at the images of students busy learning and interacting, it should become evident that the Trevor program strives to engage students in activity-based learning. Encountering new information in this environment, students are at the beginning of their journey as life-long learners. The Trevor faculty and administration design programs that keep students moving forward, absorbed in every moment. Whether they are learning about the value of sharing or sharing their interpretations of a Shakespeare sonnet, they are actively discussing, writing, drawing, communicating, asking questions and embracing each new opportunity. At Trevor, teachers ask questions and hesitate to provide easy answers. They design experiences, environments and the means by which students may take ownership of their own knowledge, and answer questions for themselves. Students learn how to learn.

We hope that these pages can shed some light on our very comprehensive and exciting programs.

Sincerely,
Deborah Keehn Black
