Sarah Honan, Associate Director of College Counseling, is one of the W+H team members who works with students as they prepare for and apply to college. She shared some thoughts about college counseling in 2020:
"Some of the changes brought about by the pandemic have been incredibly positive, even overdue, allowing students from all over the country to connect with schools in meaningful ways they may not have been able to in the past when restricted by time or money. ...However, amidst all the shuffle and chaos, one thing about college admissions has not changed: the way we approach the process."

Middle School Students Explore Aerodynamics in STEM Workshop
The Middle School offered abbreviated two-day after school STEM workshops focused on aerodynamics in the first two weeks of November. Under the guidance of Mrs. Andrea Barnett, Middle School science teacher and Science Department Co-Chair, pondered the question of how the program could offer a hands-on STEM program that would be safe during the pandemic and accessible to both remote and present learners. The answer came from the sky!
"Aerodynamics allows us the opportunity to solve problems with simple accessible materials and to be socially distant outside," Mrs. Barnett said.
