I considered sending my little bean to Delphi Academy until Lawrence Wright’s New Yorker article came out titled The Apostate regarding Church of Scientology. If you haven’t read it, please do. It’s a great but LONG article.

That article made me pause a little about sending Little M full time at Delphi, but maybe Summer Camp program looks great!  She’s only 2, and Delphi’s summer camp is for kids between 4 and 11 years old so she won’t be able to attend for another two years.

Program includes,

• Academic enrichment
• Outdoor activities
• Dance
• Music
• Karate
• Gymnastics
• Swimming and
• Field trips

Application for the program is available here.
