Science Fun!!!! 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.
New Outlook Academy students recently attended the 11th annual "Pink the Petersen" Pitt women's basketball game against Duke University.
A portion of the proceeds from this year's event was donated to Susan G. Komen Pittsburgh. Fans also received a free "Pink The Petersen" t-shirt and enjoyed pre-game activities, as well as on-court post-game autographs from the team. Breast cancer survivors in attendance were also recognized at halftime.
The girls had a great afternoon at the game while learning about the importance of breast cancer awareness, treatment and research.
Ms. George's Biology class at New Outlook Academy has been hard at work completing plant cell and animal kingdom projects. Our 10th grade students are creating 3D models of cells, while the 12th grade students are making 3D posters on the different segments of the animal kingdom. Students are enjoying the hands-on, interactive process of creating their own works of art to depict what they are learning.
Enjoying a beautiful fall afternoon at the University Of Pittsburgh to cheer on the Lady Panthers on the soccer pitch and the softball diamond. Encouraging these young ladies to think about college in their future as well.
New Outlook Academy celebrated its 3rd anniversary last month. The school is extremely proud of the growth that has occurred since the move to our current location and the addition of our inpatient drug and alcohol program in 2014. We also look forward to continued development and expansion in the year ahead. For our young ladies, the future looks amazing from here!
Our latest creation in the STEAM lab is a beautiful depiction of Hogwarts by Trinity M. With the assistance of her STEAM Instructor, Aubrey Thompson, Trinity was able to create this masterpiece on our 3D printer. Keep up the great work Trinity!
