Lights...Camera...Action!
When Olive Read '25 isn't working on segments for the Early Early Show, she's writing, producing, directing, and filming her own projects—two of these were just accepted into a film festival in New York City. Olive and her family got to go and see her work in the theater earlier this month.
"Seeing my film on the big screen was just so amazing and it really made me appreciate all the waiting I've done to get my name known," Olive said. She was only able to see one of her films on the silver screen, but other attendees approached her about how much they enjoyed her second short. "That really filled my heart with joy." Read more about Olive and her work.

Frosh Day of Service
On October 13, the Class of 2025 participated in the 8th annual Frosh Day of Service. This Carondelet tradition introduces the students to the CSJ charism of caring for their dear neighbor.
The day culminated in a meal-packing event hosted by Kids Against Hunger, where the frosh class packed 27,000 meals. We hope that they are inspired to continue serving the dear neighbor in our community!
