Please join the members of the Class of 2016 at their senior exhibition. This is an excellent time to witness the exceptional work of the senior class and engage them in conversations about the passions they've explored in their year-long independent projects.

COMMUNITY SERVICE DAY
MAY 3

Students and faculty members will go out into our community in teams next Tuesday to lend a hand to various local organizations.This longstanding Academy tradition honors founding headmaster Eric Grinnell and his five founding colleagues. Participation is required and every effort will be made to allow everyone to do so at a site that is comfortable for their needs.Those to whom we are able to offer our help are very grateful for the impact our efforts will have upon their work. 

Team Leaders will let students know about specific clothing, tools, and equipment needed.  Academy vehicles will be used to transport everyone. Most chores will be outside, so everyone needs to be prepared with appropriate work clothing, footwear that’s right for the jobs at hand, work gloves, sun block and bug repellent. Everyone needs to bring a water bottle and lunch. We will be going ahead as planned in any weather, unless we have torrential rain and thunderstorms.

We will be leaving school immediately after Morning Meeting and returning in time for sports. In some cases, groups may return early and if so should be prepared to help Mr. White with any tasks he might assign at that time. Afternoon buses will run on the regular schedule.

Students should contact team leaders or Ms. Tirk with any questions.
