Junior Mariah Nellessen has experienced a different schedule for each of the past four years. In fact, anyone who has been attending St. George’s for that long has. In 2018-19, the schedule had three periods before lunch, a 50-minute lunch block, a fourth period, and then x-block from 2:30-3:15.

What would you do if it poured down rain on your last day of school? Well, if you’re anything like the St. George’s class of 2021 on April 29, your day plan would include a mud-filled kickball game, a cleansing dip in the lake, followed by a party in the pool. Kickball – a time-honored St. George’s tradition – took place during the lunch period after many seniors finished their provided...
