Polytechnic School

This morning, we celebrated each member of the Class of 2030 and their unique qualities and accomplishments at Eighth-Grade Honors Day! 🎇🎓👏 During tonight's Eighth-Grade Promotion, we will proudly celebrate the class as they begin the next chapter of their education journey following memorable Middle School experiences such as the Colorado River Outdoor Education trip and Project Week. Congrats to the Class of 2030!

The Global Scholars Luncheon celebrated the remarkable work graduating seniors completed throughout the year. Students shared capstone projects reflecting their commitment to learning beyond Poly through global coursework, cultural experiences, and language study. Faculty, families, and peers gathered to honor not only the students’ achievements, but also the transformative work of the PolyGlobal program under the leadership of Rick Caragher. These experiences continue to shape globally minded graduates and bring our Portrait of a Graduate to life.

Poly’s Film Program hosted the annual Poly Film Fest this month. 🎞️🎥 This year’s festival, “The Experimental Pulse,” featured 15 student short films spanning a wide range of cinematic styles, all connected by a shared exploration of the human experience. From film noir and zombie memoir to documentary, drama, and experimental cinema, students examined the question: How do moving images move us? A big thank you to our student panel moderators Cici L. ’26, Sabreen E.-A. ’27, Sophie A. ’26, and Mackenzie R. ’28.
