Being a part of such a small school as Wardlaw-Hartridge is always a bonding lerience, but Upper School is an especially important time. Those years of ninth through /enth grade have made up a period when my peers and I have grown into adulthood,
ring maturity and expanding the independence we have in our lives. I know how much Spline and dedication it takes to be in school plays like “Don't Drink the Water", to present Wardlaw-Hartridge over-seas in exchange programs to France and Spain, to be |art of a varsity sports team or to write consistently for The Beacon, and the fact that so
m y members of the Upper School have taken on these responsibilities shows the discipline I dedication that we have gained, and the respect we have earned. The Class of 0 6 ved itself worthy of this respect from the faculty and student body when we had a
-in this year: something that would have been unthinkable three years ago but that, in <Junior year, was a good time handled with maturity.
There are bumps in the road to adulthood, as well. Often massive amounts of nework, strict parents, tough teachers, and the ever-present specter of the college- jpiissions process make these years of Upper School that we boldly sail through sometimes scherous waters. However, it is growing together and sharing this sometimes stressful
often wonderful time that makes us such a tight community.
