Conrad Bi-Weekly Memo May 16, 2025

Principal's Message

As we approach the end of the school year, I want to take a moment to thank our entire school community for your continued support. Thanks to your efforts, we successfully completed state and AP testing, and our students enjoyed a memorable and safe Prom.

This evening, we look forward to our 8th Grade Formal, and next week we are excited to celebrate our seniors during the Senior Awards Ceremony and recognize student excellence at the NHS/NJHS Induction Ceremonies.

Athletics are also wrapping up strong, with tournament competition beginning for Soccer and Track & Field this weekend, Middle School Softball on Monday, and High School Softball and Baseball next week.

Additionally, we invite you to join us for our Spring Band and Choral Concerts next week. Let’s continue to show up and support our students as they close out the year on a high note—academically, artistically, and athletically. Let’s finish strong, the Conrad way!

Mission- Conrad Schools of Science… teaching life science and life lessons in a kind and inclusive environment, inspiring students and improving the world.

Congratulations, Gabe!

Conrad Senior Gabe Welsh acted as a Diamond Challenge Ambassador at the Limitless World Summit in Wilmington on Thursday and Friday last week. Over the two days, he was able to watch pitches from the more than 70 teams from around the US and world, network with other students and entrepreneurs, participate in activities like Design Sprints, and listen to panel discussions on entrepreneurship. We wish him well as he continues his entrepreneurial journey next year in the UD Honors program for business.
