Senior students in the Ladue band recently had their final band concert of high school on Thursday, April 26, 2018. These students presented many speeches about their favorite band teachers and other moments they experienced in band. These students went through a brief ceremony to commemorate them where they lined up on stage and shared which school they will attend next year. Additionally, the event was special because one of the band teachers, Mrs. Cytron, will be leaving Ladue next year. They played many pieces as well as a nice goodbye to an organization they have been a part of for many years.

[There were many things going through my head], Hill said. First of all, be gentle. When bees swarm, they are docile. Second, make sure to get the queen in the box, because all of the bees will follow her. Third, oh my god, half the school is watching, so do not do something stupid.](https://laduepublications.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Hsiao_20240401_HillBees_06_RS-1200x800.jpg)
![The AP Studio Art class works on independent projects Nov. 30. Each student chooses an overall theme for their work and develops a portfolio for submission to the College Board in May. “We can use whatever mediums we want, whether it’s painting, or drawing, or fibers, mixed media collage, clay [or] sculpture,” Esmé Roberts (12) said. “I think it’s interesting to see what people come up with to express themselves.”](https://laduepublications.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Hsiao_20231130_Pano_APStudioArt_02-NEF-1200x799.jpg)
