At the Upper School (US), varsity games, fantasy leagues and professional sports have long fueled lunchtime debates and hallway conversations. Now, that enthusiasm is moving beyond fandom.

Vivian Cain-Weingram, Staff Writer | March 10, 2026

By 6 a.m. on a Monday morning, the first-come-first-served parking area outside the Upper School (US) — dubbed “The Strip” — is completely filled. Inside cars, students sleep, study and wait for the school day to begin, having secured prime parking.

‘History isn’t static’

Cata Longstreet-Lipson, Staff Writer | March 10, 2026

After a day of touring New York City, students from the Upper School’s Black Student Union (BSU) headed to Amy Ruth’s for a Southern-style meal. To BSU Co-President Princess Adeoye ’27, that moment was more than just delicious food. “It was a very good bonding moment from both sides of the table, from the freshmen all the way to the seniors,” she said. On Feb. 15, the school’s BSU...
