Zines!

Posted by Amal Giknis on

In this year’s Zines Workshop for Week Without Walls, students learned about zines as underground publications to/from/by the people. They collaborated to bring their ideas to life; writing, illustrating, cutting, pasting, and photocopying are a pleasant reprieve from our digital fatigue.

Check out the zines in our mini-library on the 3rd floor!

Terrific season for SLA XC -- four runners to compete at the State Championship!

Posted by Amal Giknis on
The SLA Cross Country team finished a great season this week at the District Championship. Many runners achieved PRs at the race, including Sam Friedman (10) and Phoenix Satterfield (10) with impressive finishes. Four runners will be continuing on to the State championship in Hershey, PA, next weekend. Congratulations and good luck to returning runners Krystal Cabrera (11) and Kaleb Harris (10), as well as the new-to-the-team Clare Halvorsen (10) and Aleksandra Begier (10). Go Rockets!​

SLAmbassadors Join Model UN Conference in Torun, Poland

Posted by Amal Giknis on
​Last week 9 students participated in ToMUN, the Model UN conference held by High School No. 1 in Torun, Poland. The SLAmbassadors in this program stayed with host families, shadowed their Polish peers at school, toured Torun and nearby Gdansk, and represented SLA among other Model UN teams from Denmark, Luxembourg, Spain, Finland, Slovakia, and Ukraine. 

We are so proud of our students and the way they represented our city and our school! Way to go, SLAmbassadors!
