On Fri., Feb. 23, at the San Jose Convention Center, hundreds of students, faculty, parents, alumni and friends came together to “Watch our Stars Shine” at the 2007 Harker Fashion Show “Cinéfest.” This sold-out event was a demonstration of the collective dedication and positive spirit that helps to make Harker an exceptional community. We enjoyed wonder ful per formances by our students, stunning clothing provided by Macy’s, and fellowship between all school constituents. While there are far too many
individuals to thank, I do want to extend, on behalf of The Harker School, my sincere gratitude to our remarkable chair Archana Sathaye, her assistant chairs Joan Brooks, Violet Boyle, Roni Wolfe and Susan Cho, and the director, Laura Lang-Ree, for providing the vision and guiding this project to new heights. They worked tirelessly this past year to lead and coordinate all the elements and complexities of a truly important event and have done so with the grace and poise of our ver y own fashion models!
