"Our students are experiencing a range of emotions, and some of them need us now more than ever. . . As a school that has always valued inclusivity, diversity, critical thinking, and tolerance, we believe disagreements do not equal division and moments like these provide an amazing opportunity to move forward. And move forward we will."
- Jarin Jaffee, Head of School
14 News visited our campus yesterday to interview Mr. Jaffee about how we were handling post-election emotions from our students.

Upper School Mock Election
Our Upper School Government class has begun a mock presidential election project. Through early December, students will host numerous activities throughout the school, including:
- posters in the hallways
- flyers to promote the "presidential candidates"
- television ads playing on our various screens
We wanted to let you know about this special project and would like to thank everyone in advance for their cooperation, patience, and understanding as our class endeavors to grasp a deeper understanding of our election process.
