Student Experience

Last Monday, illustrator Joseph Santiago of Saint James Studios and his business partner Yamilca visited their son's fifth grade Core class with Stefanie Trepper to give a lesson on a crucial aspect of the filmmaking process: storyboarding.

Last week, 32 seniors and the entire ninth grade gathered on Zoom for two fun-filled afternoons of team building during the Prep School's annual Peer Leadership trip. 

Last week, the fifth-graders in Class 5A began their advisory program curriculum for the year with an exercise that invited them to think about the values most important to them. With the guidance of their teacher, Linda Beasley, the students then searched for inspirational quotes that expressed these personal ideals. 

Last week, seventh-graders answered the age-old question "Are double stuffed Oreos truly double stuffed?" as they are learning about the scientific method.

How many dictionaries can four eggshells hold? Second-graders in Grammar School science teacher Claire Rose’s class put that question to the test in an exciting experiment last week.
