***Are you interested in taking a gap year or taking a summer program? For the past 15 years, USA Gap Year Fairs has partnered with US high schools to educate, inspire, and empower students to look beyond the classroom and pursue opportunities for experiential learning. Taking a gap year might seem intimidating, but it’s actually much easier than you think — especially when you know there’s a community of gap year experts and enthusiasts to help support you.

***For those interested in working with Lower School students, here is a collection of opportunities for you!  These include joining third and fourth graders at recess (they always need a good referee), AE day passion class assistant, and more.  This is a working document, and we will be adding more items as the needs arise.  We are adding Kindergarten recess as well from 10:00-10:30 daily. 

Our most immediate need is for AE Day on February 24 (9:30-11:00) and Grandparents Day on April 7 (9:00-11:00).  

**Note:  Only sign up for activities that fall during your drop periods or non-classroom times.  For special events, you need to ask for permission from teachers if you will miss class.  

Be sure to check back often!  You can sign up for as many activities as you would like.  Please reach out to Dean Fox (mfox@cannonschool.org) if you have any questions.

If you had belongings that were left in the US hallways, they have all been moved to Lost and Found. We found clothing, notebooks, novels, drink cups and so much more. As a reminder you should be throwing away or taking home all food containers. Biology experiments should be happening inside of classrooms not in our hallways.
