The Curriculum 2026–27
Academics.
Seven departments, one course of study — built for where you’re going.
The Idea
A Storm King education is rigorous, experiential, and built around the student. In classes small enough that no one disappears, our faculty teach creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, and communication — and expect all four, every day. Students are placed where challenge meets confidence, then guided upward: through college-preparatory sequences, into Advanced and AP work, and beyond, graduating prepared to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
Every course in every department is described in full on the pages below — what it covers, how it is taught, and who teaches it. Start with a department, or explore the programs that surround the classroom.
