A tradition unlike any other at 51Âþ», the Spring Head of School Holiday!
Senior Speaker Arthur Wang ’26 assisted in making the surprise announcement.
Head of School Holidays are typically held twice a year – one in the fall and one in the spring.
As the name implies, the boys get a day off from classes, which was replaced Monday by a whole bevy of fun things — water inflatables, a mechanical bull, spike ball, volleyball and other outdoor games, a 3-on-3 basketball tournament, Lowcountry Boil at lunch, Kona Ice, and a Dorm Wars Carolina Reaper hot wing-eating contest.
