We love reminiscing on our students’ Spring ‘26 Project! The expo allowed guests to visit the world of each book students read in class. Our students created these worlds by crafting replica items from the books, painting banners, hand crafting costumes, and student-actors portrayed themselves as the books’ characters.

Books presented:
🇿🇦 Born a Crime, by Trevor Noah
🇨🇳 Three Body Problem, by Cixin Liu
🇯🇵 Silence, by Shusaku Endo
🇻🇳 Forever War, by Joe Haldeman
🇮🇷 Persepolis, by Marjane Satrapi

Thank you to our professors for working with us, our ‘25-‘26 council for your guidance, our students for your diligence, and to everyone who supported us that night!

Honors book spotlight!!
The Honors students just finished reading “Persepolis” by Marjane Satrapi- It was beautifully written and illustrated, humorous and haunting at the same time.
