Congratulations to Tracy Wu for knowing that the name of the spacecraft Yuri Gagarian took to become the first person in space in 1961 was called VOSTOK 1. Tracy, you can claim your prize in the library. Stay tuned for a new question of the week on the Monday after April break.
Lost and found is piling up again. Please check the table outside the main office for any lost items before you leave the building today. Older items may be donated over the April break.
There will be no 3:30 pm bus to Boston today. All students riding to Boston will be taking the 2:30 pm bus. The late bus in Wellesley will leave at 3:30 pm.
Have a good day everyone!
