We would like to share with you the details of the community project combining MS Religious Studies, MS Homeroom, and CAS. The program and activities were planned with the help of Teacher Tess and SP Son (Grade 12). The goals of the community service project are

  1. Collaboration project between MS students and CAS

  2. Apply values and principles learned from RS lessons

  3. Plans to sustain the project for the benefit of the target community

The program will feature an opening assembly, and activity stations for dance, arts and crafts, music, and sports. These will be held in different areas of the campus.

Middle School students will also be gathering items for the Christmas bag to be distributed to the participants. MS students will bring one item each day beginning Nov. 21 until Dec. 2. More details to come. Cheering for our Middle School students and faculty!

Have a good week ahead, everyone!
Sincerely,

Dr. Celeste R. Engler
School Principal
