First Open Mic Rocks the Quad

The rain held off this week and we were able to hold our first 2024-2025 Open Mic. Music filled the Pavilion and the quad during community time on Friday. Seniors Jack N and Orro B served as emcees, introducing the performers who signed up to share their talents. 6th grade band kicked it off, followed by Will M on the cello. 1st period rock band kept things going, followed by two solo acts, Aislin W and Norah S, who performed wonderful songs. Next up was Public Boat Landing, with Middle Schoolers Fred D, John D and Ryan J, backed up by music teachers Mark and Cam (playing an electric guitar he built). Upper Schoolers Jack J, Jude G, Van W and Tyler B rounded out the afternoon. Open Mics are a wonderful addition to any week, showcasing and celebrating the talents of our community members in a most supportive environment and venue. Our next Open Mic will take place after we hike on Blue Ridge Day on October 23.
