Congratulations to Lucy Baker, Knox Eaves, Stephanie Gerry, Selima Ortiz, Charlie Snyder, and Lilia Zouaoui for advancing to the finals of the RCS Hyperbole competition!
The English Department commended all students who participated in the classroom speeches and the semi-final rounds last week. “It takes courage to go through this process and we are proud of you,” said English Department Chair Sarah McCay.
“Congratulations to our finalists on their bravery and poise, and to our English Department for equipping our students with the skills that made their success possible,” said Interim Head of Upper School Katie Wrinn.
Special thanks were extended to the judges who helped facilitate this RCS tradition and to Marie Peña and the entire team of English teachers for laying the foundation for meaningful student engagement.

🌎 In celebration of Earth Day, alumna Elsie Harrington ’16 Zoomed in from Costa Rica to speak with our sixth graders (and their teacher, her SISTER, Natalie Harrington ’13) during science class!
Elsie dedicated her four years at the University of Denver to studying Earth’s climates — work that led her to research in Nicaragua, Big Sur, Arizona, and the Rocky Mountains. She even received a grant to study the impact of beach trash on the ocean, global economy, and local communities in Nicaragua.
Today, she lives in Costa Rica and volunteers at Sibu Wildlife Sanctuary, helping protect and rehabilitate native animals like howler monkeys and macaws.
With a passion for wildlife conservation and environmental education, Elsie inspired our sixth graders with a powerful message: RippKids can change the world if they dream big and chase their goals. 🌿💚
