The Delphian School Opens 29th Annual Summer Camp



The Delphian School has opened the doors to its 29th annual summer camp and academic session, welcoming nearly 300 students from around the world. Students come from all over the United States, neighboring countries Canada and Mexico and as far away as Germany, Sweden, Saudi Arabia, Japan, Taiwan and Thailand. Students range in age from eight to eighteen, and come to learn the study methods developed by L. Ron Hubbard advance their academic or English studies, and just to have a good time.

Each day at The Delphian School’s summer camp is divided equally between academics and activities. The academic program is fully personalized and is addressed to each student’s needs or special interests. Classrooms are small, which allow for close personal attention from instructors, enabling students to move at a pace that results in full comprehension of what is being studied.

Afternoons are filled with activities such as horseback riding, tennis, golf, volleyball, swimming, basketball, art, music, ceramics and more. Weekends are mostly reserved for off-campus trips that include white-water rafting on Eastern Oregon’s Deschutes River and camping at beautiful Paulina Lake, located 25 miles south of Bend, Oregon. There is also a three-day trip to Seattle for sightseeing, boating and a visit to the Experience Music Project for a musical tour through five decades of rock’n’roll.

One ten-year-old Japanese student had this to say about how his summer at The Delphian School has been going: “I feel like I am more successful here. The reason why I am saying this is because I have choices of what I want to learn. At my school back in Japan I don’t have choices, but here I have a choice, and I like it.”
