This year’s theme, Sustainability, encouraged students to think critically about environmental challenges and innovative solutions for a greener future.
A huge thank you to our guest judges: 🛰 Sarven Karasesisoglu – Engineer at SpaceX 🩺 Ani Baghdasarian – AGM Alum & Primary Care Physician ⚓ Lori Izakelian – Engineer at Port of Long Beach

The Archbishop took the time to visit each classroom, engaging with our students in meaningful conversations, sharing words of wisdom, and embracing the spirit of our school community. We are grateful for the opportunity to share our love for our Armenian heritage and faith. Moments like this remind us of the rich Armenian traditions we will continue to uphold.
