reflections from the head of school

Students visited the Brooklyn Grange Rooftop farm as an introduction to their urban agriculture unit. At the farm, they got to see a sustainable working farm in action. They will continue to learn about where food comes from, plant science, composting, honey bees, and chickens.

Grade 4 hosted a poetry café comprised of original works. The themes ranged from color poems to family metaphors. The students created their own ice cream flavors to the tune of Bleezer’s Ice Cream in a rhythmic and flavorful performance, ending with their own rendition of “I Love Rocky Road."

Grade 8 students travelled to Washington Heights to volunteer at El Nido where they cleaned and repaired toys, sorted clothes, and packaged utensils to help the organization in their mission to support families with young children.

Grade 7 thespians brought Part One of “The Immigrant’s Journey” to life. Reflecting on the struggles of starting a new life and the sacrifices associated with assimilating into a new culture, our students navigated complex topics with emotion and purpose.

Grade 1 dazzled Lower School with their performance of the St. Luke's classic "Echolocation." After the traditional overview of bat life, students remixed the song, chanting 'echolocation' to the tune of 'We Will Rock You' as they clapped and stomped their feet. "One word: amazing," one student raved after the song, while another called the performance "better than the original!

Kindergarten celebrated the 100th day of school. To mark the occasion, they created artwork that visually represents what 100 looks like.

Grade 3 impressed our community with their extinct animal museum. They created beautiful dioramas to teach parents, students, and faculty about the animals that once walked the earth.
