Campus Camera Roll

February was a short month full of action at Bryn Mawr!  Whether it was Black History Month assemblies and convocations, guest authors, or celebrating 100 days until graduation!

Update from Athletics

Our winter season wrapped up with a fourth consecutive IAAM championship win and a successful trip to Philadelphia for our varsity squash team to compete in the US High School Squash Nationals.  The spring season is now underway with tryouts completed for badminton, golf, softball, outdoor track & field and lacrosse.  Our first matchup of the spring season had our softball team in a friendly scrimmage against St. Paul's School for Girls.  We are looking forward to warmer weather and great competition!

Update from the Arts

The Upper School spring play will be The Future in the Instant, an adaptation of a short story written by Mary Josephs Fowler, a graduate of the Class of 1902. 

The play was adapted and will be directed by Sascha Hurwitz ’26 who uncovered the play in the Edith Hamilton Library.
