    • Inside the Brain: Psychology Meets Medicine

    • In Person/On Campus

    How does the brain create thoughts, emotions, and behavior? What happens when it is injured or affected by illness?

    In this interdisciplinary course, students will explore the fascinating connection between neuroscience, psychology, and medicine. Through interactive activities, real clinical case studies, and hands-on experiments, participants will learn how brain structure and biology influence memory, decision-making, personality, and mental health.

    The course also introduces modern medical technologies and ethical questions shaping the future of brain science.

    Introduction to Biomedical Sciences

    • In Person/On Campus

    Which organ has over 400 functions? Are there liquid tissues in the human body? What factors contribute to the development of cancer? Much like Leonardo da Vinci’s fascination with human anatomy, our course delves into these intriguing questions! Drawing upon fundamental biological and chemical concepts, students explore the intricate anatomical and physiological mechanisms that govern normal human function, as an introduction to human biology and the science of medicine. Students learn about the human body’s different systems, including the digestive, cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal, excretory, nervous, endocrine, and immune systems, highlighting their interconnectedness. Laboratory activities encompass histology, anatomy and physiology (including dissections) and biochemistry techniques. Students also learn practical skills, such as suturing, and dive into group work, solving epidemiology mysteries and investigating the causes and cures for different diseases.

    Learning Objectives

    • Model the interrelatedness of three human body systems working together to maintain homeostasis. 
    • Demonstrate the skills and tools to complete scientific dissections.
    • Select, review and report on a disease or syndrome that impacts one human body system, including its causes, manifestation, symptoms and treatment methods.

    Introduction to Java (Greek)

    • Online

    This course introduces students to the Java programming language. It teaches them the basic concepts of computer programming and at the same time it presents to them the core ideas of Object-oriented programming.

    At the end of the course the students should be able to write complete Java programs that distinguish between java primitive and non-primitive data types, to incorporate basic programming constructs, like loops and branches, to understand and put in proper use important object-oriented programming concepts, like classes and objects, and to take advantage of Java built-in methods.

    Students are expected to be familiar with standard computer operations (e.g. login, cut & paste, email attachments, etc.) before enrolling in the course. For 8th grade students, it is recommended to have completed the ‘Introduction to Web Design’ course.

    Introduction to Web Design (Greek)

    • Online

    This course introduces students to basic web design using HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). The course does not require any prior knowledge of HTML or web design. Throughout the course students are introduced to planning and designing effective web pages; implementing web pages by writing HTML and CSS code; enhancing web pages with the use of page layout techniques, text formatting, graphics, images, and multimedia; and producing a functional, multi-page website.

    Students should have a general background in using a computer, managing files, and a basic knowledge of the Internet. Students should also be able to navigate to and within a website using a web browser such as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Safari. Students do not need to purchase any software for this course.

    It is recommended that 5th & 6th grade students have completed the Scratch Middle School course.

    League of English Superheroes 

    • Online

    Save humanity—join the League of English Superheroes! Just like Superman and Batman, students are called on to complete exciting missions to help protect the world. In this intensive, 10-lesson English course, students work together in a creative learning community and use the world of superheroes to strengthen their English language skills through storytelling, discussion, and hands-on challenges. The course is designed especially for students who want to build confidence and fluency in English, including those preparing for exams.

    Throughout the course, students explore superhero stories using ideas from literature, science, psychology, technology, and social studies. Each “mission” helps students build vocabulary, improve grammar, and develop creativity, critical thinking, and communication skills in English. By reading, watching, discussing, and creating, students learn how English is used to explain ideas, tell stories, and persuade an audience.

    Students practice different types of writing, including stories, descriptions, informational texts, and opinion pieces. Using a variety of materials such as texts, videos, images, and short articles, they analyze superhero worlds and then create their own original characters, settings, and plots. Interactive discussions, debates, and short presentations help students develop spoken fluency and confidence using English in real-world situations.

    Beyond live lessons, students complete guided activities that allow them to apply what they learn in creative and meaningful ways. They may write origin stories, explore ethical dilemmas, design superhero-themed projects, or solve problems connected to their imaginary worlds. By the end of the course, students “graduate” from the League of English Superheroes by creating their own secret superhero identity and taking part in an original final challenge.

    Lessons include interactive instruction, group work, independent tasks, and feedback from the instructor. Cooperative learning and positive peer feedback are key parts of the course, helping students grow as writers, storytellers, and confident English users in a supportive environment.

    Learning Objectives

    • Read, analyze, and discuss superhero fiction and related texts in English.
    • Practice writing narratives, descriptive texts, informational writing, and opinion pieces in English.
    • Use course strategies to create multiple original works of creative writing.
    • Take part in the writing workshop process by planning, drafting, editing, and revising their work.
    • Develop confidence in speaking and presenting ideas in English through discussion and presentations.

    Mathematical Modeling

    • In Person/On Campus

    Mathematics is more than just numbers and symbols on a page. Applications of mathematics are indispensable in the modern world. Math can be used to determine whether a meteor will impact Earth, predict the spread of an infectious disease, or analyze a remarkably close presidential election. In this course, students create and evaluate mathematical models to represent and solve problems across a broad range of disciplines, including political science, economics, biology, and physics.

    Students begin with a review of some of the core mathematical tools in modeling, such as linear functions, lines of best fit, and exponential and logarithmic functions. Using these tools, students examine models such as those used in population growth and decay, voting systems, or the motion of a spring. Students also learn how to use Euler and Hamilton circuits to find the optimal solutions in a variety of real-world situations, such as determining the most efficient way to schedule airline travel. A introduction to probability and statistics lead into a study of using deterministic versus stochastic models to predict the spread of an epidemic and explore classic mathematical problems such as the traveling salesman problem, birthday paradox, and light switching problem.  Students are introduced to logic proofs by induction and contradiction.  Students leave this course familiar with all steps of the modeling process, from defining the problem and making assumptions, to assessing the model for strengths and weaknesses.
