Secondary Seminar

There is a structured time block called Seminar Time on many Wednesdays throughout the year for advisory meetings, group college counseling, life and study skills workshops, library research, career planning, school assemblies, performance venues, and intramural competitions. Each secondary student is assigned to a particular activity during Seminar Time and is required to attend.

 

Pinewood Secondary Seminar Schedule 2011 – 2012

The Seminar schedule is designed as much in advance as possible.
