At our 2024 Graduation Ceremony, many of our alumni filled out “Words of Wisdom” cards for the Class of 2024 in the alumni lounge. Our alumni team then assembled these into a paper quilt that was on display during our 6th grade transition dinner, during which our graduates and their parents joined alumni and alumni parents to build bonds and hear other insightful tips on emotional well-being, community involvement, and academics.
