Special Programs
The freshman class participates in Project Outreach, a community service project. Artward Bound offers sophomores a 10-day program of intensive study with professional artists in disciplines such as glass-blowing, blacksmithing, African dance, and stand-up comedy. The "Outback" program is a cornerstone of life at Holderness. In Outback, juniors trek several days in a winter expedition, keep a personal journal, and experience three days solo under protective gear. In a "Senior Project," students go off-campus for work and study approved by advisors. Winter Carnival intramural competitions create team works of winter art and performance.

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or programs:
“The great rule: If the little bit you have is nothing special in itself, at least find a way of saying it that is a little bit special.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“We attempt to remember our collective American childhood, the way it was, but what we often remember is a combination of real past, pieces reshaped by bitterness and love, and, of course, the video past—the portrayals of family life on such television programs as “Leave it to Beaver” and “Father Knows Best” and all the rest.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
