High School TV/Film Students Emma Lagatol, Bella LaMotta & Paul Hakimian, along with their teacher Joan Petrocelli, showcased their short films to the community last Thursday at The Westwood Public Library.

The ASL Club and advanced art students had a wonderful experience at the Whitney Museum and on the High Line in NYC. The High Line is an elevated freight rail line that was transformed into a park full of gardens, murals, and sculptural installations. The Whitney had special exhibits by two contemporary artists, Amy Sherald and Christine Sun Kim. Amy Sherald is an American portrait artist who is known for her iconic painting of First Lady Michelle Obama and Christine Sun Kim explores sound and American Sign Language to inspire her large scale works of art.

Our kindergartners are budding persuasive writers! They’ve been hard at work crafting letters—and were thrilled to read them to Ms. Hughes to convince her to let them try out the big kid playground. Their excitement was contagious and their arguments were impressive! #BESTatBrookside
