The course includes study of the fundamentals of baking items including dough, quick breads, pies, cakes, cookies, tarts and pastries. Everyone is excited to share in the sweet success that the New Outlook Bake Shop will be serving up.
Students in Ms. George's Science class had the opportunity to experiment with extracting DNA from strawberries. Students added water, salt and dish soap to smashed strawberries to break up the cells and release the DNA. Filtering out the chunks of strawberries isolated the liquid. They then added rubbing alcohol which caused the DNA to become visible. Students were then able to pull out and handle the exposed DNA. Bill Nye the Science Guy has nothing on New Outlook Academy!!!
June 7, 2018 marked the graduation of four wonderful young women from New Outlook Academy. Loved ones gathered to celebrate the ceremony which was held at Summit Academy's beautiful chapel.

New Outlook Academy hosted a Creative Expression contest on campus recently. The theme of the event was "Using Your Strengths to Overcome Your Challenges." The students created posters and wrote essays and some of their works were selected for submission to the Pennsylvania Juvenile Court Judges Commission Conference Poster and Essay Contests. All of the projects were incredibly inspiring and award-winning in our opinion. Congrats to all of our artists.
Congratulations

Bill Nye the Science Guy has nothing on Mr. Darnley and his New Outlook Academy science class. In their recent study of the earth's interior, students got some first hand experience with volcanoes and why they do what they do. Based on what they learned, students used baking soda, vinegar, soap, water, glitter and glue to simulate and demonstrate volcanic eruptions. The groups enjoyed competing against one another to see who could create the largest eruption.
