Blue and White Day will take place on the fields on Friday, May 18th. A beloved Princeton Day School tradition, this unique field day engages the entire school in a variety of events, including a PreK-12 relay race, Noodle Tag, Capture the Cones, and the much-anticipated Faculty Tug of War. In addition, our Lower and Middle School students pair up for events, such as beach ball relays, potato sack races, and soccer dribble relays. Whether you are on the Blue or White Team, this is a day for fun and good sportsmanship for the whole school. And this is only the start of a fun-filled day for the Middle School that includes a variety show in the McAneny Theater in the afternoon and MS Fun Night in the evening. Photos to come!

Question: What is the best way to keep a senior class engaged with school in the spring? (To be fair to the seniors, when you’ve heard back from your colleges, and the weather turns lovely, it can be very challenging to stay motivated with your high school work….) Answer: Give them an independent project on the topic of their choice that offers both structure and freedom. Senior Projects at Princeton Day School is a strong tradition that offers a simple yet completely brilliant solution to the senior spring. The results are highly impactful to our seniors, sometimes changing their charted course in unexpected ways. This year’s projects include a senior who will intern with U.S. Congressman Rush Holt, a student who will study the Amish culture in Lancaster County, PA, with an eye toward anthropology, and a senior who will be researching her grandmother’s past while at the same time studying Swahili. Be sure to check back in the coming weeks for excerpts from these students’ projects.
