Congratulations to sophomore Dylan Farrell who took home the prize for Best Model at this year's NH chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIANH) Excellence in Architecture Design Awards. The awards ceremony took place at Keene State College on April 20.
Over the past six weeks, Farrell and junior Elizabeth Petrov researched viable terrain and the design of historic buildings while developing their skills on a computer program called Revit by Autodesk. Revit is a building information modeling software tool for architects, landscape architects, structural engineers, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineers, designers and contractors.
After the presentation of their designs on April 20, Farrell was awarded first place in Model Design. This accomplishment is even more laudable because both these students demonstrated independent learning and perseverance by working on their own time or during ConVal's TASC block.
Normally, preparation and actual design work for the competition take place during a student's engineering course. However, this year was different as engineering courses were reprioritized in order to provide coverage in the science department. The work of both of these students is therefore an accomplishment that is to be specially celebrated.
The AIANH Excellence in Architecture Awards Program was instituted in 1983 for the purpose of providing public and professional recognition for architectural projects of design excellence. Each entry is judged by an assembled group of professional peers based on the following criteria: overall design excellence including aesthetics, clarity, creativity, appropriate functionality, sustainability, building performance, and appropriateness with regard to fulfilling the client's program.
Congratulations to the four students who were inducted to the National Technical Honor Society on April 20, 2023.
Matthew Cutting, Jennifer Hopkins, Aeva McCullough-Szehi, and Keegan Ross were inducted for demonstrating academic prowess in their career and technical education classes as well as being community-minded.
These students were joined by previously inducted students as they pledged to continue to uphold these high standards.
Note: Jennifer Hopkins was inducted in absentia as she was en route to Europe as part of the Salzburg Exchange Program.
Over the weekend the ConVal Youth and Government Group attended the Youth Legislative Session.
Two ConVal students received awards. Senior Eva McCullough received the award for Most Outstanding Senator and Junior Gabby Ramsden was one of three people to receive Best Legislation for her bill. Ramsden was also sworn in as the 2024 New Hampshire YMCA Youth Governor and will be traveling to Washington DC in June for a national conference.
Congratulations to all of the participants of Youth and Government for their hard work.

This past weekend, March 23-25, two ConVal seniors represented the high school music program at the distinguished New England Music Festival. Hadi Lancaric and Rowan Davidson were selected through a rigorous audition process. Performing at this festival is a wonderful honor and distinction for our students.
The festival concert took place at the Woodstock Academy in Connecticut this year. Lancaric sang alto voice in the Choir, performing a repertoire ranging from the well-known piece "Jenny Kissed Me" by Eric W. Barnum to the romantic era Lied by Johannes Brahms, "Der Gang Zum Liebchen." The choir was under the direction of Hofstra choral director David Fryling.
Davidson played flute in the band and performed a wide-ranging repertoire, from Chris Pilsner's "Dum Spiro Spero" to a student favorite, "Rocketship" by Kevin Day. The band was under the direction of the associate director of bands at the Univerity of Illinois, Dr. Elizabeth Peterson.
