COMPETING FOR A CAUSE: Junior Maggie Ambrose, senior Joseph Solorio, junior Connor Bogart, and senior Grant L’Heureux, who are all in the block 2 Advanced Guitar class, perform in the guitar Christmas concert on Dec. 11 during upper lunch in the Monarch Pavilion. This concert was a competition between the guitar classes that raised money by selling hot chocolate to buy toys for the annual Christmas Outreach. “My guitar class is about learning how to play songs by picking chord progressions that have variety and sound good,” Ambrose said.
![BUILDING THE FUTURE: Plans to build tennis courts and a new Performing Arts Center will be started and completed in the coming years. This will benefit students and athletes alike as they will enhance both the Athletic and Performing Arts Departments and bring much-needed venues and state-of-the-art spaces to campus. “You want to be rooted in that tradition of the school when [it comes to] these projects, we’ve always got to be innovating and moving forward,” Vice President of School Relations Scott Melvin said.

![GET UP Students laugh and dance at a school rally. All the events and rallies hosted by ASB help bring students together and make school an enjoyable place to be. Senior Maddy O’Connor believes ASB keeps everything together and the school spirit alive. “A lot of things wouldn't be as organized [without ASB] and it'd be kind of boring,” O’Connor said. “ASB brings joy to Mater Dei, and pretty much [all things] cool.”](https://thescarletscroll.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/HEIF-Image-1200x800.jpeg)
