For the past six months, nineteen of our students have been working with two Elon University professors through a grant-funded collaboration between Williams High School and Elon University. Under the guidance of Dr. Ryne VanKrevelen and Prof. Larry Cantwell, these students have been conducting their own statistical research projects. Today, they presented their projects at Elon's Spring Undergraduate Research Forum (SURF) at Alumni Gym! 🌟 #StudentCenteredFutureFocused

The EAHS Symphonic Band was chosen as one of eight bands from North Carolina to perform at the UNC School of the Arts Invitational Music Festival in Winston-Salem. 🎶 The Eagles performed works by Ralph Vaughan Williams, Michael Markowski, and Johann Strauss on the stage at the prestigious Stevens Center, participated in masterclasses led by UNCSA Faculty, and rehearsed with the panel of adjudicators as an ensemble. Our students learned so much during this event and performed so well. Great job to all our musicians! Thank you, Band Director, Ben Crotts, for mentoring and supporting these amazing students! 🦅 #StudentCenteredFutureFocused
