• Thoughts on Shipley
  When I think of Shipley, I think of a close-knit community. It’s easy to build connections across and within grades. One of my favorite traditions is Super Saturday—an exciting day where fall athletes shine and are cheered on by peers. I also love how it brings us together with middle and lower schoolers through fun events.
• Advice for New Students
  My biggest piece of advice is not to be afraid to put yourself out there! Shipley is such a welcoming community where all aspects of life, whether it's arts, sports, or academics, are uplifted and celebrated. It's truly such an experience, and I believe the more you get involved, the more you'll feel that sentiment. Take advantage of all that's offered here!
