Combine an amazingly blue sky and vibrantly colored foliage, the energy of lower-school kids crunching through leaves and munching through sandwiches, the enthusiastic organization of Gill Romano, and the careful shepherding of our extraordinary PK-3 teachers, and what do you have?? MOUNTAIN DAY!

We hiked up (here is PK and K starting their climb behind Church on the Hill), we heard the story of the old Hotel Aspinwall, we picnicked, we played name games (thanks to our third-grade student leaders), we crafted, and then we hiked back down. It was an awesome way to spend an autumn day in the Berkshires!

I’m sure you’ll get more details from your children and teachers, but here’s my perspective. All I can say is, “Wow!”
