APEX Program
APEX at Keystone Academy are high level summer courses for students looking for opportunities to explore unusually demanding topics at an advanced level. Most of them tend to run for two weeks, and for half the day, thus allowing a student to do two courses together. These programs are not necessarily for gifted students only, but they are for those who have a passion to get to grips with subjects that can go deeper and be more intellectually challenging than those offered during term time.

Exploring her passion for understanding and addressing climate change, Keystone science teacher Ms. Portia Mhlongowill guide students through an exploration of the scientific evidence data to build awareness and enthusiasm for their future lives as potential leaders in a world that will need educated and enthusiastic advocates for solving global problems by starting locally. MS. Portia is certified as a Climate Reality Leader, and her training and experience will help the students in this class become the leaders we will need in the coming decades. This specialized class will also benefit from the participation of invited experts that will contribute their knowledge and experience.
