Brigid Malloy completed her month of residency at the Cedarburg Cultural Center in March. She was awarded the residency when the Arts Education Manager at the Cedarburg Cultural Center purchased a book that Brigid illustrated. Brigid said the residency was fun, and she was able to meet a lot of people. She was also able to sell a few pieces of her work. On March 19, Brigid taught a character design workshop at the Cedarburg Cultural Center. Her students learned about the building blocks to illustrate a character. The workshop experience was new for Brigid and helped her grow as a teacher.

This February, 17 alums came to Freedom Hall, or joined virtually, to talk with current Level 8 students about their career paths and how attending BA for high school impacted their lives. The two-hour event started with a panel, and then students attended breakout sessions based on their career interests. It was fantastic to hear these alums speak to students, and we thank each of them for participating. You can participate in next February’s event and share your career path.

Mr. Doug Ricci, Dr. Larry Pesch, and Mr. Peter Grossman held a get-together for alumni in New York City during their break at a national conference. Thank you to the alums that attended the event, and we look forward to holding similar events in other cities in the near future!

Alumnus Noah Godsell ‘20 is cementing his name in the sports announcing world. Currently a sophomore studying Digital Media at Valparaiso, Noah has already announced games for the world wide leader, ESPN. While a junior at Brookfield Academy, Noah visited Valparaiso for a campus tour and discovered the opportunity to announce. A later job posting on social media led Noah to apply. After arriving for his freshman year as a student, Noah was given the job as a member of the college's gameday crew. His first position was as a “grip”, a person who helps out with whatever is needed. 

Will found time in his schedule to substitute teach in the Middle School. Will is currently studying at MCW to be a physician. He was on a break from his rotations while interviewing for residency positions.
