Buckley Leadership Conference

 On Saturday, February 11th, The Buckley School hosted a Leadership Conference. 19 Marymount girls were able to attend the conference and Tatiana R., Class of 2013, reflected on her experience.

“The Buckley Leadership Conference was a very good experience. I learned from two guest speakers how to be a leader in both the political and business worlds. We were divided into small groups to discuss both. For the business side, we were tasked with creating a product for a children’s store that needed to be approved by the ‘manager.’ On the political side, we were given the problem of lack of funds for transportation in a fictitious city. In our groups, we needed to figure out a way to raise money to pay off our debt and to help the public transportation system, whether it was by raising taxes or hosting fundraisers. In both cases, the ‘manager’ or the ‘Mayor’ turned down several ideas and we needed to go back and think of more. From this we learned more about problem solving and working in a group. This conference was valuable because it consisted of students in a variety of grade levels from across Los Angeles.”

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Valentines from Marymount

Eight hours a day, going to and from

Eight hours a day, from friends to the best

The tall buildings on the street of the sun

Sitting by the gate greeting every guest.

The melodic music from Cantwell’s walls,

Sounds of explosions traveling below,

Flows to the calm chatter of the Butler Halls

Mixing with thoughts of the world long ago.

And yet, on the other side of the sound

Stand the shadows of life, waiting for us.

The world right over there, spinning round and round

Remembering those days spent on the bus

Eight hours a day, going by in a haze

Eight hours a day, make the most of these days

- Gigi H. Class of 2014

Happy Valentine's Day!

In honor of Valentine’s Day a few of our students have written poems and limerick’s to show how much they love Marymount. 

A place where creativity comes,

That lingers, too, when I’m an alum;

I learn all the essentials

That exceeds more than my potentials.

This is the place that knowledge sticks like bubble gum.

- Natasha S. Class of 2012

Dr. William (Billy) Hal Martin presents "Dangerous Decibels"

  Did you know there are 18,000 hair cells in each ear? And that all 18,000 could fit on the head of a pin!? On Friday, special guest Dr. William (Billy) Hal Martin (and Uncle of senior Katie E.) presented “Dangerous Decibels” to students, faculty and staff at Marymount.

"Dangerous Decibels"

  Dr. Martin used a variety of props and tools to teach our community about ways to protect our ears. According to the NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) 85 decibels is safe for up to eight hours in a 24-hour period.
