Sister, after she's an A.H.S. grad, to work there

Entrance to Hole in the WallIt was a shock to Lauren Donnellan, a senior about to graduate from Arlington High School, and her entire family when her little sister Jacqueline was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia when Lauren was in fourth grade. Between doctors' appointments and treatments, their family heard of a camp Jacqueline could attend. Nestled in rural Ashford., Conn., far from paved roads and civilization, is a safe haven for children to find peace and calm.

Tattoo at AHS, May 2008
A young arm gets a henna tattoo at the AHS multiculural festival.
This year’s multicultural festival at Arlington High School was shorter than the one in 2007, but the celebration of the diversity of various cultures left many students content. Though this year's event lacked many activities, such as music lessons, Anime, or Chinese rice dough, students participated in many interesting activities.

Fourth grader Georgia Grady as “mishap”
Fourth grader Georgia Grady as “mishap.”
The excitement was palpable at the Bishop School recently as children "became" words. Clap, clap, clapclapclap! Steven Carme, the school's principal, led children in rhythmic clapping to hush excited students assembled in the auditorium. Everyone fell into the beat. Inspired by events in the children's book, Miss Alaineus by Debra Fraser, library teacher Amy Kremer launched the Bishop's first Vocabulary Parade, on May 8, to celebrate events in a book read by second- and fifth-grade library classes and to stimulate word knowledge and fun.
