Putney programs are special. They emphasize cultural immersion, learning by doing, having fun, getting off the beaten track, making friends, and giving something of yourself to others – rather than touring or sightseeing.
In 2009, Putney offers six categories of programs: Community Service, Global Awareness in Action, Language Learning, Cultural Exploration, Excel pre-college Enrichment, and Putney Foundations for 7th and 8th graders. This website provides only an outline of the actual group experience. What makes our work so rewarding are the letters and reports from our alumni saying that their summer with Putney was “the best summer of my life.” Many parents describe their child’s growth as “far exceeding the effects of a year at school.” The maturity, self-confidence, and sensitivity towards others that most participants develop are derived from close friendships, personal discovery, and the tremendous satisfaction of conquering new challenges.
Putney offers programs all over the world. For more info, see Cheryl or:
