Tuesday, July 2, 2019 - Getting Right Down to Work

7/2/2019

Today was the first day of Forman Summer academic classes so students met the three different faculty members who would guide their educational journeys this summer.  Teachers laid the foundation for their respective classes, discussing educational objectives and class expectations, but wasted no time having the students get right to work!   

Today was also the first day for afternoon activity blocks. Each day students will have an opportunity to try a variety of activities such as volleyball, swimming, jewelry-design, music, hiking, etc. Students will stay very active during their time at Forman Summer, hopefully learning more about themselves and forging lifelong friendships in the process.

Students only participated in two activity blocks today, instead attending a Community Event to watch the Team USA vs. England Semi-Final FIFA World Cup match.  Students loudly cheered, ate pizza, and genuinely enjoyed each other’s company as Team USA won, advancing to Sunday’s championship match. The Forman Summer Community selfishly hopes for a Team USA vs. Sweden Championship match since we have a student from Sweden in our program this summer! 

This evening students had the amazing opportunity to hear two Forman Summer Counselors and former students, Kyle Budlow ‘15 and Allie Gluck ‘15, speak about their respective experiences at Forman School - in particular the strategies they learned at Forman to be successful in the years that followed.  Kyle Budlow just recently graduated from Elon University with a degree in Finance. Allie Gluck is entering her Senior year at Purdue University, where she is studying education after being inspired by multiple teachers at Forman School. Kyle and Allie are wonderful role models for our students, and we are so happy that they came back to help us with Forman Summer this year.
