Adelphi Academy of Brooklyn

Adelphians are back in class for the Academy’s Morrill Term, so here’s a #ThrowbackThursday look inside the classroom back in 1986. Pictured in science class (from left) are then-Adelphi Academy of Brooklyn 10th Graders Jimmy Johnson, Richie Halem and James Voris! #TBT

TODAY AT ADELPHI: Adelphi Academy of Brooklyn students took part in a surprise House Wars competition as Upper Schoolers Arber and Isaac announced that they had worked together to organize and moderate Adelphi's Annual Riddle Bee! Representatives from each house were chosen to participate in the bee and answer riddles of increasing difficulty. Stay tuned to find out who won!

Defending champion House Lockwood has some ground to make up, but it’s still very early in Adelphi Academy of Brooklyn’s House Wars competition. House Morrill is off to a great start with 470 points so far and will look to continue to add to that total during the next competition! House Levermore is next in line and eager to take the lead, but a big win by House Ellinwood puts them right back in the hunt. Stay tuned for updates on this exciting competition all semester long!

It’s a new year at Adelphi Academy of Brooklyn! As excited Adelphians return to school next week eager to find out what courses will be offered on Activities Day, here’s a #ThrowbackThursday look back at one of the most popular activities offered 110 years ago! These fine Adelphians were all members of the Mandolin Club back in 1909, playing mandolins, guitars, violins and the flute at Academy events throughout the year! #TBT
