On February 12th, 2026 Humanities Night was held in the library of our school by the English and Social Studies departments. It not only featured projects created by students in advanced placement social studies classes, depicting key events from the Civil War and the reconstruction era, but presentations done by AP seminar students, and even AP languages, like French as well. It is extremely important that humanities courses are promoted just as science classes are, especially when it comes to research projects where sometimes, science topics and social ones can blend together to make a combination of the two. Students were dressed professionally in business casual attire, and came prepared, knowing the information they studied inside and out. Families of the participating students were encouraged to come and view their child’s hard work, which was evidence of the weeks of dedication spent on perfecting their project. 

…..Work done by both upper and lower classmen was hung throughout the library space, and it was satisfying to see the number of people in attendance. It was also obvious how proud the humanities teachers were, especially Ms. Rice, Ms. Cerretto, and Ms. Rabuano, who stayed for the entirety of the event. “I enjoyed seeing some of my students come out of their shells and project their talent to the crowd,” said Ms. Ceretto when asked about the presentation on Child Care Services that she viewed. Mr Llewellyen also came to watch presentations as well, hoping to learn more about the curriculum and what the students of our School of Character are dedicated to perfecting. The event ran from 6pm-8pm, and is a tradition that is likely to continue for years to come, allowing students who excel in humanities to have the opportunity to be proud of and present their work in front of a live audience, without the stress a competition and real judges may provide.
