Every February, the girls’ varsity field hockey team organizes a rose sale for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute. Students can buy red roses to represent love, pink roses to represent a crush, and yellow roses for friends. The week prior to Valentine’s Day, students purchase different colored hearts (red, pink, or yellow) and write notes to their friends or valentines. On Valentine’s Day people are excited to read the notes from their friends and to pick up their roses. Most people buy roses for their friends, which takes a lot of pressure off Valentine’s Day. The field hockey team raised about $3,000, $2,000 of which went to the Dana Farber. Keeping with the Valentine’s Day theme, the Student Activities Association organizes a game where couples compete to show how much they know about each other. Everyone congregates in the Student Center to watch. Milton does a great job of celebrating Valentine’s Day on campus!
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.
