In an age of ever more elaborate snow day announcements, St. Luke’s Acting Head of School, Julia Gabriele, kept it simple: “I focused more on what to do with the gift of time. I'm always encouraging our kids to take advantage of a snow day to do something they don’t normally have time for midweek. This time, I decided to show them.”
Gabriele invited St. Luke’s sophomore Nicole Ayoub, a neighbor, to join her and the two cooked up a storm (Storm is the school’s mascot) making fresh mozzarella. The step by step lesson is shared below and was a big hit on St. Luke’s Facebook.

“Julia is the epitome of a Renaissance woman,” said Head of School Mark Davis who returns from sabbatical in April. “It does not surprise me in the least that she would find a way to make a snow day educational, fun and nutritious!”
