The 2016 Summer Quarter Issue: The Sonnet Finalists

And so begins the summer, filled with things like holiday events and crafts, road trips and graduations, sunshine and beaches.

In celebration, the Bayley Bulletin is launching a new contest geared to excite your creativity; create a story based on a character in one of the novels in your Seton high school curriculum. We’re really looking forward to the high quality stories and innovation that you craft! You can find more details right here.

For those of us who love making videos, the vlog challenge is a similar theme, except that we’re looking for you to step into the shoes of a character, and pretend to be them for five minutes on camera.

Also in this issue, we are proud to introduce the top eight winners of the Sonnet Contest. I was amazed at how each of these first and second place winners crafted truly impressive meter and rhyme, with a balanced flow of thought and voice. We hope that you enjoy reading them as much as we did judging them.

This quarter kicks off with many of you graduating, so this issue includes handy articles and ideas for those of you starting your journey towards colleges, how to flourish and excel, and how to thrive with our most precious gift, our Faith.

We hope that you’re enjoying this quarterly Bulletin, and that it is inspiring you to keep going and growing in your high school adventure. Let us know what you think! Leave a comment on the articles, sign up for the contests and challenges, and just say hi.

We’re always happy to hear from you. Have a blessed quarter!
