Theme: Re.Imagine
We are living in trying times — yearning for truth, knowledge, peace of mind, and a path forward.
Hope rests in our ability to understand, change, and begin anew. And the power of ideas inspires us to recalibrate adversity into prosperity.
Year 9 is committed to connecting the dots so that we all may better embrace our civic responsibilities, communities, one another — even ourselves.
