Advanced Sculpture Video

Hi All,

If you are looking for a little break from your activities, you may want to click on the link below to see the adventures of two fine sculptors (Jon Bzdel and Danny Gould) this trimester.  If you would like to read more about the work, you can click on the attachment above.

The pieces are NOT permanent and if you would like to see them in person, I would recommend that before Friday you take a walk out to the open space behind the middle school to see them.  You can also see the fine work of the Winter Trimester Sculpture class there as well, which is a stone eye called the Eye of Awareness.

Enjoy!

A special thanks to the Communications team and Traci Wolfe for helping this get out to all of you!

Pool Open Today 12:30-1:30

The Williston pool is open to all to cool off and have some fun from 12:30-1:30 today.  Coach K has volunteered his lifeguarding experience to make this all happen and will most likely have some others helping him.  It’s a great time to take a break and cool off before other responsibilities happen in the day.  Enjoy!  Thanks Coach K!

Update: Weather Tonight

This afternoon the National Weather Service issued a tornado watch for Berkshire County, west of the school. We are monitoring the situation, but tonight’s Academic Awards Ceremony is taking place as planned. The event, which is mandatory for students, will be held in the Athletic Center, beginning at 6:45 p.m. (It will be webcast live at www.williston.com/live).

In case of a weather situation in Hampshire County, we will contact families by text message to update them about the school’s response to the emergency conditions and about any changes to this evening’s event.
