The fall session is FULL. Spring is open.
Can you solve the mystery before the end of the book? Do you enjoy trying to look for clues and piecing the puzzle together? Can you catch the red herrings the author drops to throw you off track? This independent study on classic mysteries gives you a chance to dive in with the best of the best in plot twists and surprises! Get to know Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes and discover for yourself why this iconic character is still intriguing fans today. Try to outsmart Agatha Christie if you can, but there’s a reason that her books are outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare!
Works to be covered and the student’s objectives and goals for the semester need to be approved by the teacher before the semester begins. Books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, G.K.Chesterton, and Dashiell Hammett may be chosen. Other book choices outside those authors will need approval and may require an additional fee. Students will meet with the teacher an average of 3-5 times during the semester.
Special Note: Please contact the teacher to discuss your ideas and desired booklist for the independent study before registering. For middle school students, please email to discuss book options
