领导

6项清单.

• 青年团

  In 2005, the Academy Battalion was decommissioned; the Albany Academy developed a leadership model to keep the military tradition alive within the school. 这个由学生领导的组织后来成为军校学员团. This organization serves to provide numerous opportunities for students to practice leadership as they progress through the school and through the 青年团 ranks.

  
  在军校, there are three different branches to select from once you join: the Drill Team, 鼓线和彩卫. Each branch is a highly 尊重ed group that gives a student the chance to lead his peers as he progresses through the ranks.

• 可能的项目

  The May Project program is an educational experience that gives seniors the opportunity to pursue a variety of professional experiences ranging from work in a research laboratory or museum to recording music to learning about technology development in a gaming company. 而该项目允许学生探索他们的兴趣和想法, it also allows them to demonstrate the core values that they learned during their years at The Albany Academies: responsibility, 自律, 同情, 聪明才智, 尊重, 服务, 正直与毅力.

  
  而每个学生的项目是不同的, all the experiences grow out of a specific set of principles and guidelines. 五月初, the students – instead of going to classes – participate in an internship that pertains to an area of study they intend to pursue in college. The student is expected to find an appropriate placement; however, 学校为学生提供支持和联系.

• 高级荣誉项目

  The Albany Academies’ mission statement is exhibited in countless ways during the school year. One of the most vital examples of the school’s mission in action is the Senior Honors program. In the past 2015-16 school year, nine AAG students and eight AA students participated. 这些长达一年的独立项目, 学生每周都向导师咨询的地方, 具有广泛的兴趣和追求. 其中包括绘画方面的“艺术三联画”研究, 诗歌, and design; a photography exhibit on New York City; a presentation of the culture and history surrounding French baking, among other subjects; the composing and writing of an original song; and a presentation of the history of the Academy. Despite the differences among subject areas, they are still bound by a common thread. 从学术角度来说, 这些项目注重“主动学习”原则, where the student assumes primary responsibility in shaping material and analyzing concepts. 真的, 虽然, this program model mimics the way any of us approaches learning in an age where information is readily available and essentially boundless: We follow subjects and ideas that inspire us. 正如一名学生所说:“这正是我选择这个项目的原因. 而不是死记硬背和准备考试, 我们进行了一次体验, 对我们自己选择的科目采取参与的方法, mostly because of a driving interest to find out more and sometimes even as a path to a future career.”
