It was a busy day today in the upper school as author Wendy Mills visited the campus to talk about her most successful book, All We Have Left. Her novel focused on different perspectives of the terrorist attacks on 9/11.  Ms. Mills’ talk was an insightful, historical glimpse into what went on on that day 16 years ago, when our country was changed forever.  The student body was engaged and attentive throughout, as they saw the event from an angle that was new to many.

Notably, all students wore pink today in support of former Lunchroom Supervisor, Tammy O’Dell. She has been battling cancer for several years.
