Seven Hills recently celebrated the life and impact of Al Cappolillo. In his honor, students participated in a number of literary activities. One of those activities involved writing a 6-word short story. Six words, and six words only. In this special edition of Ashes & Sparks, we showcase a selection of those stories. Enjoy!
