    Ahh..I can finally breathe a sigh of relief as I look at my AP exams through the rear view mirror of the car that is driving me through the last few (20) days of school...

  • May 5, 2008: Kelly's blog

    So, in the midst of what looks like a busy, AP-filled (3 to be exact) week, I'm starting my new photo project...

  • April 21, 08: Kelly's Blog

    So, it's been a while! I suppose I should tell you that spring break went very well...

    These last two weeks have been exceptionally busy...

  • February 11, 2008: Kelly's Blog

    So, I'm almost done with my first photo project-- and trust me, after many frustrations, forced reshoots, and scratched negative after scratched negative, I'm happy and a little proud to have finished it well...

  • February 10, 2008: Brandon's Blog

    Last weekend campus was relatively empty as most of us left for Long Winter Weekend, which is a nice mini-break during the winter term.

  • January 28, 2008: Kelly's Blog

    This weekend, we had no Saturday classes, and so, after a long sleep in, I went to Deerfield with the hockey team for entertainment...

  • January 14, 2008: Kelly's Blog

    I woke up this morning and foolishly forgot to look out my window, so you can imagine my surprise when, in an "I've only been awake for 20 minutes" stupor, I stumbled out of the front door to Bissell and into a giant snow bank...

    Back-to-back Flood-Marr Champs!

    We have a stretch of games coming up that will be pretty tough, but should be a lot of fun.

  • January 7, 2008: Kelly's Blog

    So, it's finally 2008...

  • December 4, 2007: Kelly's Blog

    Today I really only have one thing on the brain, and no, it's not exams, papers or projects, it's my photography...

    Hockey season has started up and the team looks like it will be pretty good...

  • November 27, 2007: Kelly's Blog

    As I'm sure all of you are aware due to stuffed bellies and even fuller fridges, this past week was Thanksgiving, and we here at Hotchkiss celebrated with an eight-day, much anticipated break...

  • November 16, 2007: Brandon's Blog

    Last week of classes before Thanksgiving Break!

  • November 13, 2007: Kelly's Blog

    Mostly, I found myself down on Baker field for my last football game after four years of managing, and so, even while our victory was a huge 47-6, it was a bittersweet moment as the lights started to fade and Baker got dark...

  • November 9, 2007: Brandon's Blog

    Tomorrow all of our teams play our school rival, Taft...

  • November 6, 2007: Kelly's Blog

    Speaking of Taft, this week is our Spirit Week. Leading up to Taft Day this Saturday, which we're hosting, the entire school dresses up...

  • October 30, 2007: Kelly's Blog

    This weekend was rainy, but at the same time very warm and relaxing. After the football game Saturday afternoon, I was invited out to dinner by my friend Dan...

  • October 26: Brandon's Blog

    In English class we were assigned our final project, which is to create a screenplay for the book Prodigal Summer. It looks like it might be harder than we thought, but it should be a lot of fun filming it.

  • October 23, 2007: Kelly's Blog

    Well, tomorrow is the last day of the first marking period, and it's safe to say teachers seem to be panicking...

  • October 19, 2007: Brandon's Blog

    It was nice having my mom and sisters out for Parent's weekend. The football team enjoyed a big win beating then undefeated Trinity Pawling 34-7.

    Hotchkiss Football

    Other than the game, it was a relatively quiet week–oh wait, did I forget to mention the HOLIDAY? Our new favorite headmaster called a headmaster's holiday early Thursday morning...

  • October 1, 2007: Kelly's Blog

    So far this week nothing big has happened, granted it is only Monday, but this morning a bunch of us went down to Mr. McKenzie's around 7...

    Hotchkiss Football

    Well, the third week of classes here at Hotchkiss has officially started. I've not only had my first French Lit essay, but my first French Lit rewrite, not to mention my first calc test, first English paper, and our first big night football game – and wow, what a game..
