A Visit With Scott Dadich, Co-CEO & Founder of Godfrey Dadich Partners

Scott Dadich is a former All Saints Patriot. He is now the Co-CEO and Founder of Godfrey Dadich, a major design firm in San Francisco, California. Today 8th grade met Scott in a Google Hangout to hear first-hand about his professional journey. He shared an amazing tale of job experiences, including meeting and working with famous people like Matthew McConaughey, Beyonce, and President Obama. Scott says the most important skill to being a great designer is curiosity. He said people need to be curious about how things are made, how they are put together, and how to use what we have to make something new. He also said it's more than just artistic talent. He talked about the importance of Math, Science, Writing and communication skills. He ended our visit by reminding us to look around at our fellow Patriots; for these are the people that will be there for us through our own life's journey. . . . and that he would be hiring.

Headed to Mo-Ranch

Next week 8th grade students travel to Mo-Ranch. This is a much anticipated field trip and a tradition at All Saints.  Each year students spend a week participating in exciting and adventurous team-building and leadership activities.

We know lots of pictures will be taken to share the memories, so below is a map to "crowdsource" pictures students and sponsors wish to share. (All photos will be moderated before posted.) 

We invite you to view our Story Map. Feel free to participate if you have pictures to share. As always, comments are welcomed.
