The Masters School

We’re looking back on the incredible student-choreographed Masters Dance Company spring concert, Moot Point, filled with creativity, passion and unforgettable performances.

A special shoutout to all our talented MDC dancers, especially the seniors (M’kaela Riley, Ari Melnick, Tatum Wallach, Niana Degelman), who poured their heart and soul into every piece. Bravo!

From 49 Clinton Avenue to the World Cup, the Masters community is never far apart ⚽️

Director of Residential Life Pilar Méndez-Cruz ’12 and her Upper School English department colleague Mariah Peña were delighted to run into recent graduate Mark He ’26 among the 80,000 fans at MetLife Stadium this weekend.

Studying the physics of roller coasters, launching air-pressure rockets, programming robots to play golf, and developing new product ideas. And that’s just Week 1.

Our Masters of Innovation campers are already thinking like inventors, collaborating like entrepreneurs, and tackling challenges with creativity and confidence. Along the way, they’re building new friendships and welcoming a few future Panthers who will be joining the Masters community this fall.

We can’t wait to see what they create next week.

“We are proud of who you are and who you are becoming. We cannot wait to see where your journey takes you.” -Tasha Elsbach, Head of Middle School

Congratulations, Class of 2030, on your middle school graduation! Your passion, perseverance, leadership and kindness have inspired the middle school community and will serve you well in the Upper School in the fall.

From their first adventure at Boundless Adventures to their interdisciplinary collaboration at the Arts Expo, our eighth grade rock stars are ready for their next stage as they graduate tomorrow. High school, here they come!

A lot of sound advice given to the Class of 2026 at Graduation today — follow your passions, embrace new opportunities, be a power for good, and, according to Co-President Jamie Milward’s dentist, always remember to floss.

Congratulations, seniors. Go out into the world and keep doing it with thy might 💜

Talk about ending on a high note. Our fifth graders wrapped up their yearlong exploration of ancient Egypt and opera with an original puppet opera full of creativity, music and heart.

This beloved middle school tradition came to life under the direction of Michaela Boller, Bruce Robbins and Katie Meadows. The students wrote a libretto, “The Undergames,” about various Egyptian gods and goddesses, roles played by their intricately-designed puppets. From a macarena dance party to a non-stop snow storm, it’s good to know the handcrafted deities are “all in Egypt together.” 💜

Everybody out of the pool. Except for AP Environmental Science students, whose engineering challenge was to build a boat from recycled materials and prove that buoyancy, design, and sustainability can actually float. Pass the duct tape, Dr. Mac.
