The Winter 2020 issue of the Upper School literary magazine, The Green Ponderer, was published this week. The magazine includes poetry, short fiction, creative nonfiction, drawing, painting, and photography by Upper School students, faculty, and, sometimes, recent alumni.

We usually publish once each year in the spring, but we have had as many as three editions in a year. We appreciate each and every one of the submissions and are so thankful that each person took the time to create something great. 

From everyone at The Green Ponderer, thank you.
