Club Highlights Arrupe Club On February 14, the Girls Division Arrupe Club organized an hour-long “Spread the Love” Valentine’s Day drive-thru parade of about 50 students, decorating vehicles and bringing cheer to the residents of Chelsea Place, a senior living facility specializing in memory and Alzheimer's care.

Claire Robertson '23 was selected to the 2021 Colorado AllState Orchestra as a cellist.

Theatre History in the making! For the first time in school history, the Drama Club staged a musical, Bright Star: Concert Version, outside on McNicholas Green. Inspired by a true story and featuring the Tony ®-nominated score by Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, the concert version of the show is crafted to be performed on any stage, so leant itself well to being produced outside. To prepare a show during COVID restrictions, the actors rehearsed exclusively either online and outside; pit band pre-recorded the instrumental track for the actors; and tech crew exercised ingenuity in building the sets and keeping the props simple to allow incredible flexibility. Of four planned performances, two were able to happen due to mercurial spring weather. Fortunately, RJ Media captured one of them on camera; watch it here: www.regisjesuit.com/BrightStar.
