A screening of "See You Soon Again" is scheduled for May 6 during the Maryland Film Festival.
A documentary film about Leo Bretholz, a spry 90-year-old Holocaust survivor and book author, features scenes filmed at Perry Hall High School. "See You Soon Again" is scheduled to be screened during the Maryland Film Festival on Sunday. Find a film clip and photos on the official website.

Perry Hall Elementary student Jordan Sprouse wrote an essay on how his mom is his hero.
A diamond heart pendant may be out of the price range of most fifth-graders, but that's exactly what Perry Hall Elementary student Jordan Sprouse gave his mother last week as an early Mother's Day gift.

About 150 fourth- and fifth-graders submitted essays titled, "Why I Love My Mom." "[Jordan's] was the only essay that didn't follow the same pattern. It stood out in that he talked about how his mom was a hero," Boyer said. Last week, Reeds manager Tim Blanton and salesperson Brittney DeFalco awarded Jordan and his mother, Jennifer Sprouse, a diamond …
