  • During a week with drastically fluctuating weather conditions, it is fitting that eighth graders in science teacher Maura Foley’s class are studying local meteorological conditions. The class is capturing data through the use of a portable weather station. You may see the station in the Quad this week.

  • On Saturday, Nov. 9, members of the Hopkins Drama Association joined acting students from the New Haven area to meet one another and celebrate Shakespeare! Organized by Elm Shakespeare's Education Coordinators, Sarah Bowles and Rebecca Goodheart, approximately 35 teens from Hamden Hall, ECA, The Elm Shakespeare Teen Troupe and Hopkins spent two hours sharing their love of acting and Shakespeare. Through a series of games and exercises run by Ms. Bowles and Hopkins Drama Instructor, Michael Calderone, these young actors explored line delivery, movement, character development and stage combat. Special attention was made toward breaking down barriers between schools and organizations who are often pitted against each other in traditional rivalries. Differences faded away as all students realized that each group produced a Shakespeare play this fall. The workshop ended with each organization creating a short trailer for their production and encouraged each other to attend their shows. While the Hopkins production of Hamlet closed in October, there were some in attendance who came to Lovell to show their support. HDA looks forward to other collaborative projects through Elm Shakespeare and local schools in the future.
