Senior Trip
We took over 220 Titans to beautiful Keuka Lake last weekend for our 20th Annual Senior Camping Trip. We dodged all the rain clouds and had a great time!!

Elementary Parade...
Seniors went back in time today to visit Willink and then trek down to their elementary schools. Tears of sadness and joy from both staff and students at all of our schools. The elementary parade is always a crowd pleaser!!
We love our Seniors! See you at Graduation!

Juneteenth Lunch Celebration
Last week our Black and Brown Student Union had their 2nd Annual Juneteenth Lunch Celebration. We had a table available during all lunch blocks where we had music playing, did some dancing, gave out Juneteenth bracelets and stickers as well as pamphlets describing what the BBSU does and who we are. Despite the rain, it was a fun event that promoted awareness around Juneteenth, cultural representation, and increased unity and the appreciation of diversity within the Thomas community. We look forward to growing the celebration next year!
Alliance for Young Artists & Writers
I am happy to share the great news that Jr, Advanced 3D student, Jessica V. has been honored with an Alliance for Young Artists & Writers National Silver Medal! Please join me in congratulating her and check out the attached images of the work.
The following was taken from Alliance for Young Artists & Writers recognition letter:
"More than 100,000 students entered nearly 340,000 original works of art and writing to the 2024 Scholastic Awards. Your work was selected by some of the foremost leaders in the visual and literary arts for excellence in originality, skill, and the emergence of a personal voice or vision. Fewer than 2,500 works received a National Medal, which places you within the top 8% of all submissions! Since 1923, the Awards have celebrated teen artists and writers from across the country. You are now part of that legacy, joining the ranks of notable alumni, including Tschabalala Self, Stephen King, Kay WalkingStick, Charles White, Joyce Carol Oates, and Andy Warhol—all of whom won Scholastic Awards when they were teens. We are proud to publish your work in our Online Galleries at artandwriting.org. Your name will also be listed in Yearbook 2024, a companion to our annual art and writing anthologies featuring selections of works by National Medalists ."
