New Year, New Summer at Delbarton
Meghan Podimsky

Delbarton Summer officially launched an updated website to kick off the new year.

This summer, Delbarton has physical and intellectual learning and skill-building. Our co-ed academic options include for-credit courses, skill-building like the Writing Workshop, SAT and ACT prep courses and other exciting opportunities.

Our sports camps allow young athletes to train with Green Wave coaches and athletes to sharpen their skills. This year, Delbarton Summer offers two new, all-girls sports camps for the first time ever!  We welcome ambitious athletes in grades 5-9 who want to develop their skills in soccer and tennis. These two new camps are offered as 5-day, half-day camps. Session One is from July 17 to July 21, and Session Two is from July 24 to July 28.

Start the new year off right as camp registration begins on January 15, 2023 by visiting delbartonsummer.com.

Delbarton Sports Camps are proud to announce that this summer we will begin to offer two dedicated all-girls camps.

Coming in the Summer of 2023, we will offer all-girls soccer and tennis camps for girls entering grades 5-9.  The girls are invited to participate with award-winning instructors during two sessions at the end of July. Girls camps will run 2:00pm-5:00pm with early drop-off and late pickup options available.  This is a great option and would work well in combination with one of our morning summer courses as well!

We hope you will join us for these exciting new programs!

Pigs Fly in Delbarton Summer Physics Class
Meghan Podimsky

Delbarton Summer has kicked off to a good start this year as Dr. Preethi Thomas teaches her summer students about circular motion. Advanced credit Physics is one of the many for-credit courses Delbarton offers each summer. The course is designed to introduce students to the fundamental concepts of physics. As the weeks unfold, students put these concepts into practice as they navigate a combination of computer lab-based learning, live lab demonstration, and lectures.

On July 12, the class began with a lecture on how circular motion works in physics: any object moving in a circular path has a centripetal force that allows the object to move toward a central focal point. For example, the class observed a flying pig to experience circular motion. Next, they used a tiny ball and raced it down a circular track. As the ball accelerated down the track, it gained speed and defied gravity to make it through the track without falling off the track.

To wrap up the lesson, Dr. Thomas directed her students outside as they performed a water bucket experiment. During this activity, students picked up the bucket and spun it around and around while the water stayed inside, thereby demonstrating how circular motion and forces work together to keep the water inside the bucket.

Well done to Dr. Thomas’ class of ambitious students for an innovative day in Physics! To find out more about Delbarton Summer Academic Programs, click here.
