Tuesday Banquet, Wednesday Assembly

On Wednesday, we will have Assembly in the Chapel at 8:30 am and be sitting by advisories.

On Tuesday at 5:45 pm, the boarding community and other community members who have RSVP’d will be gathering in the Dining Commons for a Community Banquet. TWe will be sitting by dorms and other attendees will have assigned seats. Dress is coat and tie for males and dresses, skirts, dress pants and appropriate tops for the females.  In other words, dress to impress and all outfits should be within dress code!

Immediately following the dinner, the Hills have graciously invited everyone to their home for cookies and hot beverages.  It should be a wonderful evening and we do hope you enjoy it!

Thanks again, Ms. Noble

The Willistonian: Remembering Al Lavalle

says that, “He changed the whole cage…changed people…changed the
school…all for the better.”

Al passed away on November 25th after a long battle with colon cancer. The day
alums and students found out about his passing, Facebook was overflowing with
memories of All and  people thanking him for all he taught them. Al worked in
The Cage for ten years before joining the physical plant. While he was in The
Cage he imparted many life lessons onto hundreds of people. Following is a
tribute from a few alumns who will never forget him.
