住宅生活

家外之家

每个宿舍都是一个有自己家人的家. Dorm parents work hard to build a sense of community and to make each student feel as safe, cared for, 就像他们在自己家里一样快乐. The faculty who live in the dorms are mom and dad, teacher and advocate, all rolled into one. 他们帮助学生做作业, watch a favorite TV show together after study hall, 或者边吃零食边聊生活.

Students are part of an extended family that works and plays together, because they are living with the dorm parents as well as with the rest of the faculty who live on campus with their spouses and children.

理想的地点

索莱伯里学校位于巴克斯县, PA enables us to visit many of the attractions of the northeast while enjoying the quiet, safety, 还有一个140英亩的乡村校园. We're an hour from Philadelphia and the New Jersey beaches and an hour and a half from New York City and the Pocono Mountains. Our immediate area boasts wonderful outdoor activity options as well as the malls and multiplexes students love just a short van ride away.

Dorm Life

Solebury's 100 boarding students thrive in the structure that boarding life provides. 夜间自习室, activities, and lights out to ensure a good night's sleep all contribute to an environment where students can develop the discipline and the habits that lead to long term success. The most significant part of the boarding experience for students is the lifelong friendships they form with one another. 他们共同度过的时光的回忆, 他们一起成熟，一起成长, 会是他们永远珍惜的东西吗.

Solebury has several dormitories ranging from larger dorms to smaller house-like dorms. 每间客房都设有一个完整的厨房, WIFI上网, 洗衣设施, and plenty of space for boarders to work and enjoy their free time. 一半以上的教员住在校园里. 所有的老师, 尤其是宿舍的家长, are there for students at every turn—to offer extra help with that history paper, 在外面扔棒球, 花一个下午烤饼干, 或者开着一车孩子去远足, 或者去看电影, 当地苹果园, 或者去纽约玩一天.

 

Dining

When Solebury was founded, students and teachers had their meals together. Tables are still shared by boarding and day students, faculty, and their families in the Herbert S. 博伊德餐厅. 这里有四位出色的厨师, the dining hall offers a full breakfast every weekday—eggs made to order, pancakes, 燕麦片——周末吃一顿更丰盛的早午餐. 午餐和晚餐包括自制汤, 全套沙拉吧, and a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Fruit, snacks, and hot and cold drinks are available throughout the day. If there’s something students would like to see on the menu, they can simply ask the chefs. 查看示例菜单.

 

Weekends

Weekends are a time for boarding and day students to form connections with one another and with the faculty, 去体验新事物, 并留下永恒的回忆. 每个人都有自己的选择, including trips to nearby New York City or Philadelphia, hikes, 晚上篝火, 或者一个班级的学习小组. 

 

 

Boarders Bonding (B2)

Every Wednesday night between dinner and study hall, all boarders have a mandatory program called Boarders Bonding (B²). Students bond with their dormmates and the entire boarding community through games, discussions, and events. Proctors and social chairs help to guide the programming. 

Dress Code

在我们这个紧密相连的社区里, students have the freedom to express themselves in many ways. 和其他社区一样, there is an inherent responsibility within this right of expression to be conscious of and respect others. 索伯里没有着装要求. We expect each student to be responsible regarding their selection of clothing at school, 在学校活动期间, 在食堂吃饭.

Health

A three person nursing staff who are available from 7:30am to 10:30pm seven days a week. Our expanded health facilities provide office space for our nurses, 检查室, and six separate spaces for isolation and/or quarantine.
