Senior Walk

The Senior Walk was one of the most memorable moments of my life. Having been a part of the Modern American School family since Pre-K, it felt surreal to walk through the halls as a graduating senior. The experience brought back so many memories and reminded me of the friendships, lessons, and growth that shaped my journey. It was a proud and emotional moment that I will always cherish.

Since I have been a student at MAS since preschool, prom was especially meaningful. It was one of the most memorable nights of my school years, filled with laughter, dancing, photos, and celebrations with friends who have been part of my journey for so long. It was the perfect way to celebrate the friendships, memories, and experiences we shared while growing up together and to mark the end of this important chapter in our lives.

From Shakespeare to Streetwear

As part of our senior English class, we reimagined Julius Caesar through original T-shirt designs inspired by the play. Using meaningful themes, symbols, and quotations, we created visual designs that reflected our understanding of Shakespeare’s work.

This project helped us explore the play’s themes of power, ambition, loyalty, and betrayal through a modern lens. It encouraged creativity and critical thinking while showing us that Shakespeare’s ideas remain relevant and can be expressed in many different ways.
