Following a nine-week winter term, students rested and recharged over spring break. Students spent time with family, travelled to new and familiar destinations, and participated in Learning in the World (LITW) Programs affiliated with Andover.
Camden Schopler ’27
Cooper Simon ’28
I was on vacation in Aspen, Colorado. I usually woke up around nine-ish, skipped breakfast, and then skied until about four. We skied until the end of the day every time. Then, I’d go back to the hotel and lay in bed for a while and watch TV. We’d go to dinner around six, seven, or eight. The third day we were there, it finally started to warm up, and it was not too hot yet, and it wasn’t too cold. It was 30, 40 degrees, and it was just really nice spring skiing. I had a sweatshirt on. And it was just a really enjoyable time. The conditions were the best they were the whole trip.
Maddie Yang ’29
I participated in the crew training trip and also participated in the New Englands swimming competition at the beginning of spring break. We would usually erg or go out on the boats right away. On a daily basis, we had this stretching routine where we would gather in a circle and do lines and do fun and dynamic stretches as a group. The practices lasted around three hours, and then we would come back to the hotel. We also did fun activities, like team bonding. We all went to the arcade and went bowling.
Mojmír Horváth ’26
I traveled to [Los Angeles], and later on to San Francisco, and then back to LA. I did cliff jumping. After exiting the ocean, I noticed there were baby sharks just living in that area. I would typically wake up at 7 a.m. and text a friend in a different time zone. I would then work on a computer science project for the next few hours and get breakfast, which was also lunch. Next, I did some more coding and later on, went to dinner with friends. [A highlight of my break] driving the Pacific highway to San Francisco.
