Over the weekend, a small group of our Spartans attended the 2026 LatinX Conference held at Nobles and Greenough School. This year, the conference centered on exploring culture through the arts—giving students opportunities not only to experience different forms of artistic expression, but also to create, reflect, and tell their own stories through art, music, dance, and writing. A great opportunity for our students - we’re so proud of them for attending and representing Lawrence Academy.

This year, two seniors, Nikhila Nalamada and Molly Walsh, created these incredible renditions of Park House. Stunning, to say the least…
