#TBT to our 50th Anniversary Celebration 🎉
It’s hard to believe a whole year has gone by already! We’re still feeling grateful for the memories, the laughter, and the generations of Crossroadian community who came together to celebrate.
What were your favorite moments from the 50th? 💙💛

📸 Photos by Ryan H. ’28 (Media & Design Studio) from the Rock Climbing 5th Day course’s trip to Climb So iLL (@climbsoill).
Ryan discovered a love for photography and digital design through 5th Day—a passion he’s already thinking about pursuing in his future career. This is what 5th Day is all about: students learning from each other, exploring their interests, and connecting their passions to purpose.
You can see stories like Ryan’s come to life at the first 5th Day Exhibition of the year, on Wednesday, Oct. 16 from 1:25–2:50 pm!

🐐 POV: A goat broke into Crossroads… and found its way into the new Innovation Hub.
Our Media Studio students dreamed up, filmed, acted, directed, and edited this video entirely on their own as part of their first assignment: create a unique piece of content to show off the space. We think they nailed it. 👏
The Media Studio (and projects like this!) are possible thanks to the generous support of the Innovative Technology Education Fund (@itefstl), whose grant made our new Innovation Hub a reality. 💡💙

📚 Looking for a school where your student will be known, challenged, and inspired? At Crossroads, learning is hands-on, community-connected, and deeply personal. Our Open House is the perfect chance to see it for yourself!
Help us spread the word—share this with families in your circle who might be searching for a place where their student will belong and be challenged. ✨

Congratulations to Jonathan Pulphus ’13 on the release of his debut book, With My People: Life, Justice, and Activism Beyond the University—out today! 📚✨
We’re sharing Jonathan’s yearbook photos from his time at Crossroads and celebrating the ways he continues to live out the values he carried here. We`re so lucky to know this exemplary Crossroadian doing such good work in the world. 💙✨
From co-founding Tribe X and helping lead the signing of the Clock Tower Accords as a student at Saint Louis University, to launching Justice Cultivator as a strategist and thought leader, Jonathan has built a career as an equity advocate and organizer. His work in service and activism continues to be recognized, most recently with the St. Louis American Foundation’s 2025 Salute to Young Leaders Award.
His new book explores student activism, community organizing, and what it takes to sustain movements beyond the university.
📅 Celebrate with Jonathan at his book launch and signing, in partnership with Left Bank Books:
Saturday, September 20 • 6 PM • First Congregational Church (6501 Wydown Blvd, St. Louis)
