MBS parents and alumni are invited to join us for a special Crimson Conversations Zoom event on Tuesday, April 20 at 7 p.m. as a Holocaust survivor and moderator share their story. The presentation is made possible by the Holocaust Council's "Survivors Speak" program and is part of a series of events at MBS throughout the month that are designed to celebrate Jewish heritage and promote tolerance. Earlier in the month, our students will engage in a student designed workshop that includes personal narratives and the family history of some of our very own MBS students. The entire School community will also hear from a Holocaust survivor during an All-School Meeting. The Zoom link for the April 20th Crimson Conversations event will be available closer to the date. For more information, contact Klarissa Karosen at kkarosen@mbs.net or Andrew Holbrook at aholbrook@mbs.net.

Mark your calendars for the next MBS PA Fiction Book Club discussion which will be held on Wednesday, April 28 at 7:00 p.m. via Zoom. The next selection is Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty. Here is the blurb for the reading selection. Zoom Link to follow.

"A murder...A tragic accident...Or just parents behaving badly? What's indisputable is that someone is dead.

Madeline is a force to be reckoned with. She's funny, biting, and passionate; she remembers everything and forgives no one. Celeste is the kind of beautiful woman who makes the world stop and stare but she is paying a price for the illusion of perfection. New to town, single mom Jane is so young that another mother mistakes her for a nanny. She comes with a mysterious past and a sadness beyond her years. These three women are at different crossroads, but they will all wind up in the same shocking place.

Big Little Lies is a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal, and the little lies that can turn lethal."
