About Us
75 Years of Transformative Summer Programs
Students can choose from career, exploration, language, service, and academic-focused programs in a number of different countries. Moreover, all students participate in cultural immersion and complete a creative independent student project of their choice. Past projects have included apprenticing with a gelato maker, designing sports marketing campaigns, and learning to play a traditional instrument.
Wondering what you can expect from each focus? Career-focused programs include wildlife conservation, cultural & art, and science & business. For example, Writers鈥� Workshop and Craft, held in Ireland and Scotland, gives students the opportunity to to draw inspiration from the landmarks. Alternatively, Exploration programs are all about discovering a new country and immersing oneself in its culture. As such, students journeying to Iceland participate in activities like hiking on glaciers kayaking through pristine fjords. Service program participants participate in structured projects that give back to the local community they鈥檙e staying in, while those undertaking a Language program engage in authentic interactions with their homestay family as well as the local community on a daily basis.
To apply to these summer travel programs for high school students, you鈥檒l need to complete an Applicant Statement and two teacher references. Looking for more options? Putney collaborates with a number of other providers, including Smithsonian Student Travel and National Geographic Student Travel.
