Think of this as like a tutor group in a more conventional school, however it has as much more fundamental importance at XP. At XP schools, each student is placed into a crew of 12-13 students who will be their school family throughout their time with us.
The tradition of Crew is both a culture and a structure. The term βcrewβ comes from educator Kurt Hahn, the founder of Outward Bound. Hahnβs said βWe are crew, not passengers, strengthened by acts of consequential service to othersβ.
Crew is a place where character, adventure, and a sense of family are developed in a deliberate fashion.Β
Crew fosters a sense of belonging in students, and is a place where students learn to be the best version of themselves, whilst helping all students achieve in their common mission of being university-bound.
