This fall, accomplished author Jonathan Miles will offer The Art of the Novel, an evening class open to Solebury students and adults from the Solebury community. Known for his New York Times Notable books Dear American Airlines and Want Not, Miles’ work is highly regarded, and as an alumni parent, he brings firsthand familiarity with Solebury to the classroom. His experience as a professional novelist gives students a unique opportunity to learn the craft of storytelling directly, highlighting what makes a Solebury education so special.

We’re thrilled to have him back this fall!

A little post-camp buzz!

During summer camp, campers explored the fascinating world of bees. Through hands-on activities, they learned how honey is made and how bees support our ecosystem. Their final activity was harvesting honey from the combs and taking home a small bottle to enjoy. Throughout the school year, students care for the bees and share the honey with the community. It’s a year-round experience that gives everyone a chance to learn and contribute to the program.

Summer camp may be over, but the learning and fun don’t have to stop!

Congratulations to Lovena A.’25 on successfully completing her internship at United Airlines and ABM! Throughout the program, she gained hands-on experience while learning the importance of teamwork and communication. Toward the end of the internship, she was also selected as one of two interns to give a speech in front of the mayor and share her experience.

“The biggest lesson I'll take away is a sense of community here…Every person has a different role, but each one is essential.” -Lovena A.’25

It’s exciting to see where our young alumni go next, and we couldn’t be prouder to see Lovena putting her interests, skills, and Solebury experience into action.

A little appreciation for our wonderful parent community!

Thank you to Sean Tracy P'29 of Hewn Spirits and Justin Zazlow P'29 of Pierre's Chocolates for hosting such a memorable Parent Social in Peddler’s Village last February! Parents gathered for an evening to enjoy expertly paired bourbons and gourmet chocolates.

We’re grateful to our hosts for bringing the community together, and we would love to see more gatherings for the upcoming school year!

While summer camp is filling our campus with lots of little feet running around, something special is happening in the background. Solebury’s faculty and staff are volunteering their time to pressure-wash, paint, plant, and prepare our campus for the new school year. You’ll notice a freshly painted porch and stairs on the Crib, newly painted classroom doors, and more.

In just a few weeks, we will welcome back our students to a beautiful campus. Thank you to our Summer Beautification Crew and Facilities team for keeping our campus beautiful!
