Extra-curricular Activities Idle, Urban Scholars is not. Below you’ll find a term-by-term overview of a typical calendar year. During each term we emphasize academics and college preparation (of course!), but we also include a variety of activities, events and trips that provide students with opportunities to explore career paths and develop leadership and teamwork skills.

Field Trips
 Throughout each term, at least once a month or once a week during the Summer Institute, interested students and staff take field trips to local destinations and events such as an Alvin Ailey dance troupe performance, the New England Aquarium, Shakespeare in the Boston Common, the Blue Man Group, the Museum of Fine Arts, a local technology festival like Girls Get Connected, and, of course, roller skating, bowling, hiking and skiing.
