Women's History Month Speaker




Amy Stern: Affiliate Faculty, University of Washington School of Law / Former Attorney and Diplomat, U.S. Department of State




Amy spoke to the high school students this week for Women's History Month. She talked about her journey from a small school in Seattle (Waldorf Academy) to the University of Washington and then getting a JD in International Law. She studied in India, worked at the state department from President Obama's administration through President Trump's second term, and served 3 years in Brussels, Belgium, as the legal advisor to the US Ambassador to the EU. Our students asked great questions about going from a small school to a large university and about how to navigate the decisions along the way of their career path.

New Flex Day Offering




Stick Fighting & Stage Combat (offered Wednesdays during period 2)
This dynamic course introduces students to the fundamentals of safe and expressive play stick fighting, blending physical movement, creativity, and basic stage combat techniques. Students will learn how to safely choreograph and perform stylized stick fights for performance. Emphasis is placed on control, timing, partner trust, and storytelling through movement. Throughout the class, students will practice foundational stick-fighting patterns, footwork, and partner drills while learning how stage combat techniques create the illusion of conflict without real contact. Students will also explore character, emotion, and dramatic intention to bring their fight scenes to life. Collaboration, safety, and respect for partners are core expectations in every activity. By the end of the course, students will have the opportunity to choreograph and perform short staged combat sequences that demonstrate creativity, physical awareness, and theatrical storytelling.

Summer Camps




Our teachers are taking a real summer break this year, so we won't be offering summer camps as we have in years past. Instead, we're partnering with Dr. Joshua Gladstein (an OT who works with many of our students on campus each week) to bring you summer camps on Trillium's campus.




Dr. Josh is offering 1-week camps for 6 weeks this summer, each with a fun and engaging theme.
