Preview Night, on November 12, 2015, was a night to show off Sacred Heart-Griffin to fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth graders considering SHG as their high school. The night would not have been a success without the help of over 50 student volunteers.
Senior and student body president Megan Schultz gave an opening speech about her involvement and growth throughout her years at SHG.
Many student volunteers were Student Ambassadors who gave tours to the groups of potential students. The tours visited just about every wing of the school, covering just about every class that SHG provides.
In the science wing, chemistry students presented tour groups with many interesting experiments. In the fashion room, fashion students wore old fashion outfits while they worked on new ones. In the basement, art students displayed and created pieces of art for the people to see. Near the chapel, students helped explain prayer services and retreats. The cheerleading and poms teams performed for the school’s visitors. The choir students performed many songs for tour groups to listen to and the band practiced for all to hear.
SHG students did not do everything though. Many teachers and faculty members took a lot of time in preparing and presenting Preview Night. The teachers set up presentations and powerpoints just for the occasion. “The math department’s set up really interested people from the beginning,” said junior Charlie Costa, who was a tour guide for the event. “They had the engineering bridges set out along with a sound project that was projected on the wall.”
Preview Night was a long night for everyone, but it was a success. Both Megan Schultz and Charlie Costa received positive feedback from many people. Schultz said, “The parents of my sister’s eighth grade friend said that they learned so much from Preview Night and being able to walk through the halls helped open their eyes to how great a school SHG is.”
