Seven seniors recently presented on this year’s Class of ’48 Awards and were joined by Fran Sargent and Mary and Ray ’48 Mountain. This year’s award winners traveled to volunteer in Pakistan, studied photography in Maine and created a fictional animation about urban villages in China. One recipient traveled to the Netherlands, Lithuania and Poland to research her family’s connection to WWII and the Holocaust from both the Jewish standpoint on her father’s side and the viewpoints of her maternal family who hid Jewish families. Another attended AIM High, a medical school immersion program at Nova Southeastern University. Others studied school safety and started a middle school robotics team for underserved students in Newport. Thank you to the Class of ’48 for their support of these projects. CUPOLA
