2011 Forms and Waivers

The Office of Continuing Education is proud to once again offer Peaks & Potentials to Montana youth. Now in its 29th successful summer, this experience is designed to give high-ability/high-potential students entering grades 5-7 (in Fall 2012) the opportunity to explore special topics of interest and work with experts in various subject areas. A recommendation from an appropriate school official is required for the student's acceptance.

Instructors are MSU faculty, graduate students and experienced professionals from the area. University students and professionals act as director and counselors throughout the week. Students have the option of staying on campus or commuting each day. All classes emphasize personal instruction and small group interaction as well as a "hands-on" approach. Academic, recreational and social activities offer students a chance to interact with their peers and sample campus life.
