With a new school year comes the return of Java Fridays, a weekly forum hosted by Head of School Dr. Hirstein. These gatherings bring together parents, faculty, staff, trustees and occasional guest hosts for open and meaningful conversations. Our first Java Friday of the year will take place on Friday, September 5, at 8:15 a.m. in the Peter B. Benedict Library Glass Room. Be sure to keep an eye on your mySTEDS calendar and the SES Weekly eNews for future dates. We look forward to an engaging and collaborative 2025-26 school year!
