On the heels of Easter, we have some fun photos. Our Cubs are on "Chick Watch" at the Lower School! Ms. Witherspoon is very popular these days offering a tour of the incubator she has in the science lab. Look for more photos once our newest members of the Lower School hatch!

Our students in Gr. 5 experienced the joy of unplugging and then rolling up their sleeves at Red Gate Farm last week. Director Bono and Dean Love-Matteo arranged an amazing overnight stay complete with hikes, farm work, campfires, and bonding.

Our Gr. 1 Cubs got a close up view of Lady Liberty on a gorgeous spring day this week! They enjoyed visiting the monument as well as the ferry ride there and back! Thank you, Ms. Fernandez, for capturing the joy of the visit. NYC is an amazing classroom!

Our middle and high school band and choir recently enjoyed getting off campus for a performance of Antony & Cleopatra at the Metropolitan Opera. They had fun exploring Lincoln Center, and the high school band even enjoyed lunch in the park on their trip!
