Travel Study
Since 2006, Brearley has offered rising juniors and seniors a chance to visit India on a three-week, Travel/Study program accompanied by members of the Brearley faculty. A highlight is working alongside an organization in Mumbai that offers educational programs to children living in the streets and slums. A Travel/Study program to China was launched in 2008, and in summer 2011, students participated in a new program to Vermont that emphasizes sustainable and ecologically responsible living. The trip included homestays at a co-housing community, where the girls eagerly pitched in with farming chores, and a chance also to experience larger-scale commercial farming.
