Join us on Friday, May 29, 2026, as we recognize the graduates from the Class of 2026!

We may not use the term “epistemology,” but that’s exactly what the students are studying: theories of truth and strategies for uncovering it amid both technological noise and intentional deception.

Learn about the all-school summer reading selections, guided by the principles of relevance, choice, and voice.

In a world with increasingly complex tensions and challenges, we need our graduates to leave our institutions with the ability to think deeply, problem solve creatively, listen thoughtfully, and use their voices to improve the world around them.

Thus, the imperative for bold, structural change in education is no longer simply aspirational; it has become essential. The existential questions facing our students demand a new model of school that is responsive to the changing reality of today and aimed at shaping the future.

Our summer reading as a faculty and a community has stayed with us, informing our decision-making, supporting our practices, and helping us to understand an increasingly complex world.

Throughout this past winter, many of you have been following the news of protests and counter-protests on college campuses about a host of issues. While activism and political engagement are important, much of what we have seen lately underscores the deep political polarization that now exists in the United States. It also throws into stark relief our current inability to engage in the type of meaningful dialogue that might lead to understanding rather than vilification and further strife.
