🎤🕺 The wait is over…our Back-to-School video is here! 💜🩶

This year, we brought a little Michael Jackson-inspired energy to welcome our Blazers back! From the music to the moves, our staff had an amazing time coming together to celebrate a new school year.

As we begin another year, we’re excited to continue building a culture where everyone is a piece of the puzzle. We can’t wait to welcome our students and make this our best year yet!

🎬 Press play and enjoy!

A massive thank you to everyone who helped get us to these steps. The girls presented today in the group documentary Senior division at the national round of National History Day presenting their piece on the Aba Women of Nigeria and their fight against colonial taxation in 1929. It’s a fascinating testament to the power of women to organize, spanning 130 miles at a time when communication was limited. Spoiler alert: the women defeated the British without spilling blood.

The Scholars Academy freshmen presented their 20 Time Projects today. Each of them spent 20% of their time learning a new skill of their choice. We saw presentations on everything from baking to animation to running track with spikes. I’m very proud of their hard work.
