🎪 Power meets precision as West Wilson ’26 returns to the St. Louis Teen Talent Competition.
For the second year in a row, West has been named a finalist—this time performing with his longtime acrobatic partner, Lyla Lawless, after five years of training and performing together. Their work blends strength, trust, and storytelling, shaped by countless hours of practice and a shared commitment to the craft.
From Circus Harmony (where Crossroads students have long found their footing) to the professional stage with Circus Flora, West continues to push himself as an artist and athlete, building performances that are as thoughtful as they are powerful.
📍 Join us at the Fabulous Fox Theatre on Saturday, January 24 to cheer on West & Lyla—and help them take home the Audience Choice Award. Your presence, your applause, and your vote truly matter. Free tickets (🔗 in bio) and loud Crossroads pride encouraged.
We’re proud to be home to so many students who bring discipline, creativity, and courage into everything they do. 💙

“We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.”
These words, which stand proudly at both entrances of Crossroads, guide our community every day—and they felt especially present as we gathered for our Martin Luther King Jr. Morning of Service.
Students, families, and staff came together to honor Dr. King’s legacy through action—assembling care kits, writing Valentine’s cards, preparing décor for Black Arts Explosion (save the date: Feb 27), and caring for our neighborhood. Each act of service reflected our shared commitment to justice, equity, and community.
Thank you to the Crossroads Family Organization, our student leaders, and every volunteer who helped turn these words into meaningful work. Together, we lived out the reminder that service connects us all. 💙

Senior Jay O. isn’t just competing on the Crossroads chess team, he’s helping foster the next generation of players. From teaching middle school students at Blossom Wood Day School this summer to tutoring youth through NSBE, Jay is sharing his skills far beyond our campus. This is mentorship, leadership, and community-building in action.
As we look ahead to our MLK Jr. Day of Service, we’re throwing it back to past moments of “Good Work” at Crossroads. Service has long been part of who we are: students, faculty, staff, and families showing up with care, creativity, and purpose. Join us this January as we once again turn compassion into action. #ThrowbackThursday

Our Art Department took all 7th graders and some theatre students to the Fabulous Fox last Friday to see The Outsiders. Seeing live performance together (especially in such an iconic space) is a powerful extension of classroom learning. A memorable evening for our students and staff alike. . 🎭️
From the ’80s to the 2020s, Crossroads alumni filled the building for our Holiday Homecoming: playing the annual basketball game, jamming in the music room, flipping through yearbooks, and reconnecting across generations. It was an absolute joy to see our alumni make the space their own again...and Bob grinning the whole evening. Alumni: check your email for a quick survey about the event and a general alumni check-in (we’d love to hear from you!)
Another strong showing for Crossroads Robotics this weekend at Webster Groves High School: we’re still holding 1st place in the STL league 🥇 Even better, we extended our lead over the second-place team. We`re so proud of this team for their focus, teamwork, and constant iteration. Let’s keep it rolling, Servo Stressors!
In the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy, we’re coming together as a community for a Morning of Service 💙
On Monday, January 19, Crossroads families and students are invited to spend the morning turning compassion into action: crafting Valentines for seniors, assembling care kits, and creating portable “Mom” hugs.
Can’t attend in person? You can still make an impact by donating or purchasing items from our wish list. Every act of generosity helps spread care beyond our campus.
