I recently found myself in a social conversation with a potential upper school parent about why they should consider North Cross for their daughter. I am capable of conversing on a number of other topics but much to the chagrin of Ellie, this is a topic that I speak on frequently this time of year.

 The Blue Fairy with her team of trainees, Pinocchio and Geppetto (aka, l to r, Aadeetri Pandey, Sydney Newbern, Anna Ciccozzi, Indira Weed, Nika McLaughlin, Jacob Juneau, and Annie Ferrara). Years ago, my ninth-grade daughter learned that she would not be able to play both tennis and volleyball, because they occurred during the same season. Not content to let my daughter lounge around watching One Tree Hill reruns, my wife required my daughter to try out for our spring musical, Bye Bye Birdie. While initially reluctant, my daughter wound up participating in musicals all four years of high school and to this day has a deep appreciation for the theater.
