No two journeys in the Class of 2026 have looked the same but together, they've built something beautiful. They've embraced change, pioneered it, used their voices for good, and shown up for each other every step of the way. They are, in every sense, Love in action.

This week, we celebrate them, their journeys, and everything they've become and everything still to come. Meet the four speakers elected by their classmates to take the stage at this year's Baccalaureate Ceremony. The voices of a class that has done it all.

Join us at the Angie W. Cox Auditorium on Friday, May 15 at 8 p.m.

Happy Earth Day! Last week, our students got an up-close look at where recyclables go, touring the Republic's Materials Recovery Facility and seeing the sorting and processing that happen behind the scenes.
As Professor Nick Johnson reminded us, recycling matters, but it's just one piece of a much bigger picture. True sustainability calls us to think deeper, live intentionally, and act with the whole Earth in mind.
We're proud to be a community that doesn't just talk about a better world. We go see it, study it, and work toward it.
