Dear Students and Faculty,
As follow up to Dr. Burns’ visit yesterday, if you are interested in more information about the research and travel opportunities available through the Wallacea Foundation please contact me. These experiences are open to students, alumni and faculty.

Director of Student Activities Matt Spearing is organizing a guided tour of some of America’s most amazing sites in the southwest over Thanksgiving Break 2016. This trip was originally scheduled for Thanksgiving Break 2015, but has been postponed for a year. Students or parents with questions can contact Mr. Spearing at mspearing@williston.com
Looking for a way to celebrate the almost-end of school? Come over to the Reed Center and see the Arts Intensive Show in the Grubbs Gallery on Wednesday from 4-5 p.m. There will be food, great art, and great company! Don’t miss it!
-Ms. Hume
Just a reminder to all returning students:
New ID’s will be issued in the fall without charge to students who have turned in their Active ID and have had their photo taken before leaving campus.
1) All returning students must come to the Business Office to have a new picture taken from May 15, May 20-22 and May 26-28 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.
2) Let Business Office know at that time if a travel ID will be required.
3) Return active ID and pick up travel ID at Business Office before leaving campus.
If you require your card number in order to purchase books from the online bookstore over the summer, please contact the Business Office and that information will be provided.
Please note:
Students are expected to follow the school’s dress code (Refer to page 15 of the Student Handbook)
For example:
No T-shirts: boys must wear a collared shirt
No tank tops, spaghetti straps or strapless tops
No hats, headbands, etc.
No exposed undergarments
Mandatory dorm clean up today from 4:30-6:30 p.m.
Boxes should be sealed and labeled for room inspections. This includes all boarding students and all dorm parents.
Commencement is just days away, and we’re so excited for the Class of 2015! We’re looking forward to getting together as a community to celebrate the Academic Awards Ceremony on May 23 at 1:00 p.m., Baccalaureate on May 23 at 8:00 p.m., and Commencement on May 24 at 9:30 a.m.
Knowing that many of our families would like to watch the ceremonies from wherever they are, we will be using live stream service called High School Cube for both the Academic Awards Ceremony and Commencement. This is a new service for us, and we’re hopeful it helps you share in the excitement on campus.
(Due to the solemnity and reflective nature of the Baccalaureate service, that evening event will not be livestreamed.)
You can download the High School Cube app on your phone, and then follow the Williston Northampton Live Stream Channel. Please note: there are two Williston Northampton channels, but only the Williston Northampton Live Stream Channel will be showing the ceremonies.
We are hopeful this new service works as planned; thank you for your patience as we work to bring you live events from campus.
Farewell, seniors! And to the many who are still working hard on assignments, we will do our part to provide academic support and the best environment for your efforts.
As we enter the final week, the expectation in the library is that you come to study and, while here, respect the needs of your fellow students.
The hours this weekend are:
Saturday 10 – 12
Sunday 3 -5; 7:30 – 9:45
Best wishes to the class of 2015!
Regular hours resume Monday
The library will close Thursday at 2:00
Have a wonderful summer vacation!
Ms. Paige
