Senior Informal Yearbook Photos: Seniors are currently in the process of choosing their informal photo for inclusion in the yearbook.

Connecticut Alliance for Foster and Adoptive Families Fundraiser: The Upper School Senior Committee has connected with the CAFAF branch in Waterbury to help raise funds to supplement a special holiday program they facilitate for teens in foster care. Teens are often the hardest in the system to place and many are left with no one to provide gifts over the holiday season, leaving these children without the special experience many of our students will enjoy over the break. Donations will be collected each day at recess through the end of the term. Students will be able to donate cash, or use up to $20 of funds from their student accounts. Any family wishing to make larger donations in support of this cause should contact Dean of Students, Phil Perreault for details. Last year we managed to raise $1200 in support of this cause and have set a goal of $1500 this year.
