VIth Formers Share Passions, Projects, & Research at Annual CES Festival
The Millbrook community enjoyed presentations on a wide range of interests and disciplines at this year’s CES Festival on May 11th and 12th.
VIth formers are required to complete a CES (Culminating Experience for Seniors) project during their final academic year in order to develop their intellectual independence in a particular discipline by engaging in an authentic project that they feel culminates their Millbrook experience. Students select their project at the beginning of their senior year and pour hours of work into preparing for their final festival presentations. Each project goes through a stringent approval process before students can begin putting in their required minimum of fifteen hours of work; many students put in three or four times this hourly requirement.
This year’s presentations represented a broad range of talents and interests. Projects included art exhibits, musical, and theatrical performances, and independent scientific research projects. Students also created original music, clothing lines, maps, magazines, and more.
