Admissions News The Math+ Program Grows Our De La Salle Math+ Program for boys and girls in grades 6-8, first offered in the Spring of 2014, had a 40% increase in the number of students participating this fall. Joe Novak (’03), a DLS Math teacher, offers a new topic in advanced math in each session. Math+ is ideal for any student looking for supplemental instruction to his own school’s math curriculum. Incredibly, every single participant said they would recommend this program to another student. One participant said, “When I came here I thought that it would be like any other math class, but when I left I could tell it was completely different and unique. I would really love to come back.” The next Math+ offering will begin in late February. Be sure to check the DLS website for the course offerings announcement.

The De La Salle Summer Camps continue to grow. We already have begun planning this summer’s camps, and are excited about the new ones that will be offered. Some of the new camps we hope to offer to boys and girls are: • Outdoor Survivormen’s Camp - Fishing, Riflery, Archery, Camping, and more. • How to Get into The Ivy League and Beyond - College Applications, Scholarship Writing, and more. • How to Play Like Beethoven, but Rock like a Star Music Camp. • Design and Drive Camp - Engineering and Robotics Design and Building. Check the De La Salle Summer Camps page on the DLS website in early January 2015 for a full listing of dates, times, and camps. Remember to check with your tax professional to see if you are eligible to use the childcare tax deduction while your kids are at camp.
