BRIGHT LIGHTS The pandemic didn’t stop our students’ talents from shining bright! Theatre students performed in masks and to virtual and in-person audiences. In addition, our band, orchestra, and choir students recorded individual performances that were then combined into a group production collage. The fantastic lengths to which our students and staff kept the arts alive and thriving is nothing short of remarkable.

Shilpa published a children's picture book that she wrote and illustrated entitled Ruby and the Case of the Corona Monster. The book tackles overcoming the fear of the unknown from a child's perspective regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.
