**A Reminder that Tuesday, May 3rd is Exhibition Day at MHS. Many juniors and seniors have AP exams (Spanish/Computer Science) or will be studying for upcoming AP exams, while all 9th and 10th graders have appointments with their advisors to conduct their exhibition. There are no regularly scheduled classes.
The QSA would like to thank the six teachers who graciously volunteered to get a pie thrown in their face to raise money for QSA's big summit and prom in May. Mr. Bromley, Mr. Chater, Ms. Howe, Mr. Parker, Ms. Squier and Mr. Tillitson were the brave volunteers. MHS students voted with their dollars to see Mr. Tillitson win the honor! We raised $152, which will go to support the statewide Queer and Allied Youth Summit which MHS and U32 are co-hosting on May 14th. Over 200 queer and allied youth from all over Vermont will gather in Montpelier. On their behalf, thanks for your generosity and support!
A Solon Salute to the MHS Earth Group for their work to help around 100 MHS students participate in the Vermont Youth Lobby's rally for the planet. This event was student created and organized with collaboraters from around the state. An estimated 700 students from around the state took part in the rally.
A Solon Salute and congratulations to Anna Scoppettone and Rachel Zimet on having their musical compositions featured at Music-COMP's Opus 31 concert on April 27th. Their works were selected for live performance by professional musicians at the Elley-Long Music Center in Colchester. The concert featured original works by 26 young composers from all over Vermont and beyond.
