Track Offerings

Every student is unique. Summer at Parker provides a plethora of course options to engage, inspire, and enrich every student’s learning experience within three tracks (right).

Each track is three weeks in length; students may choose a different track for each session (Session I, Session II, and Session III). This allows students to experience a variety of summer courses while also remaining with the same group of students during a given session.
