Fishers Island
School provides students with high-quality, rigorous core curriculum in
mathematics, English language arts, social studies, science and Spanish.
Additionally, a wide range of choices in required and self-selected
course options are available to all students.
The educational program at Fishers Island School also offers students
the opportunity to broaden their learning experiences outside the
classroom. Consequently, they can take advantage of an array of
co‐curricular and extra‐curricular activities within the school
environment and the extended Fishers Island community. As a School‐Wide
Enrichment Model School, students meet a variety of interesting guest
speakers through our Viking Voyages program and participate in hands‐on
SEEK mini‐courses such as aviation or basic auto maintenance. Some of
the many other options available include clubs, school sports, student
council, drama, community center activities and community service
projects. All of these activities provide opportunities for students to
pursue their interests and to enjoy time with their peers and community
mentors.
