Our community experienced a very difficult loss this week with the passing of SMS junior Megan Ives. Meg was an alpine skier, a soccer player, and a dear friend to many. Our school is small and with the absence of our alpine ski team in Chile, it feels even smaller this week. Needless to say, yesterday was a very subdued day on campus and we spent a lot of time supporting one another. Our thoughts and prayers are with Meg’s family, friends, and teammates. Yesterday afternoon all of the students on campus came together as a group to be outside and play a game of capture the flag in the sunshine.

On Wednesday we teamed up with the snowboarders & freestyle skiers to run through the obstacle course a few times. We’ll do this again on parents weekend so it was good prep for our all school relay.
