The boarding weekend programming includes a variety of events that allow boarders to enjoy and experience new and exciting activities in different parts of the city. On Saturday afternoon, a group of boarders were accompanied by Mr. DelZotto and Ms. Blagona, to visit a local yoga studio near campus, where they enjoyed an afternoon of Puppy Yoga with 8-week old maltese puppies. The puppies played, ran and explored while the boys did a yoga class. Some puppy play time followed, creating many smiles and cuddles with furry friends. “It was really fun and relaxing to play with the puppies, each one of us had at least 1 or 2 around us!”
