Upper

For the final time for the 2025-26 school year, Upper Schoolers lined the hallways and took over classrooms to share their Challenge Experiences with their classmates and teachers. The Challenge Experience can be an independent project, a dedication to service, or a Concentration on a topic studied at a deeper level.

Students shared how they learned different languages, made their own perfume, and crafted jewelry. Numerous students earned Concentrations in healthcare, marketing, business, and more.

Congrats to everyone for completing your Challenge Experiences and sharing it with others!
