Congrats to Felicia and Abby!

We've just finished counting the votes for the annual sweatshirt design contest. YAY! We're proud of all who submitted designs, and we offer congratulations to Felicia and Abby, who submitted the winning images.

Abby's image will be on the front of the sweatshirt:














And Felicia's will be on the back:















We like how the girl on the front looks a little timid and a little mischievous at the same time, and then the RAWR comes out. =)

We'll vote on sweatshirt style and colors next!

End of Mod 1! We made it! =)

It's been a busy end of mod, and it went by all too quickly!

In case you haven't heard, we've elected our student leaders for the dorm! Congratulations go to Shari and Ronghao, who have been elected to serve on our Boarding Life Committee alongside Amy, who is the current head of BLC. Kudos also to Sarah, Niko, and Victoria Z. who were chosen to serve on Dorm Board, and Beechna and KyoungHee who were elected as alternates to Dorm Board. We were really proud of everyone that ran, especially our very brave new students that put themselves out there!

On Friday, we had our first end of mod art show, and there was a lot of Barnie art on display. For those of you who didn't get to see it in person, I tried to get a pic of most of our girls' art so you can see it here. If you're interested in seeing a wider selection from the art show, be sure to check out CSW's facebook page. (You might want to just become a "fan" so you get all of CSW's updates!)

For our new Barnies, this was their first experience with an end-of-mod and it was pretty intense for many. And now we're on mod break...the first mod break of the year is a popular one to go home or visiting friends, so we only have 9 students in the Barn right now. There's been a lot of relaxing down time, but some are going to the Topsfield Fair today, and they have beautiful weather for it--it's supposed to be in the 80's all day! It's like summer!
