Take a walk through our hallways and you'll hear students speaking English, Spanish, Korean, Sudanese, Arabic, and just about any language you can think of.
Many of our 7th and 8th graders are refugees and are learning the ins and outs of a whole new culture while still learning the concepts of their curriculum.
They come from all different backgrounds. Each brings their own story to our school culture, and for many of them, the discoveries and excitement of learning are novel experiences.
My Project
With COVID-19 restricting middle school sports, our kids need an outlet for their energy. Studies show that not only does running do wonders for your physical health, it improves your mental and emotional health as well.
Providing our girls with running shoes will improve their physical, mental, and emotional health as they increase their endurance and experience what it feels like to be part of a team.
Our runners will not only focus on running but on what it means to be a team--supporting others and leaning on others for support when you need it.
