The holiday spirit has finally hit campus in the final days leading up to winter break. The Student Center is filled with lights and fake snow shines on every windowsill. This weekend, a gingerbread house making contest created a delicious display in the dining hall. Each dorm has also used the holiday season as an opportunity to advertise house pride by hanging massive letters above the entrances, marking each house from across the Quad. Inside of the dorms, Secret Snowflake clues are being dropped and the boys are practicing for caroling following Boarder Dinner. On the last Monday before winter break during the Holiday Assembly, the entire Upper School will be lucky enough to hear each acapella group perform a classic holiday song, and even be able to join in on the singing. Also during the Holiday Assembly, the entire convocation center bursts out in the 12 Days of Christmas with each day shouted by a different group of students and teachers. Although many of us are itching for the start of vacation, the festivities on campus make the last days of 2012 the most memorable. From the Milton Academy Orange and Blue Key, we wish you a happy holiday season and a great year to come!
Hi, and thanks for visiting us! We’re the leaders of Milton’s Orange and Blue Key (OBK) Society. OBK is the group of about 160 students who give tours to students and families visiting our campus. We work closely with the admission office to make sure you get a good sense of what it’s like to be a student at Milton. We hope that you’ll visit us in person, and until then, enjoy this “insider’s” view of the School we love.
