Have you been looking? Well keep searching... It's Grade 12.3's CAS Project!

MARCH 1st.
After School. Fly solo, or work in team to find the treasure at the end of... 
THE SCAVENGER HUNT




Brought to you by Grade 12.3! 

Sickle Cell Walkathon!


As you know, grade 10 and 13-1 held the first walkathon ever for a CAS project, on February 9th.

We didn’t pick this project randomly. From grade 7, we've watched and supported our fellow classmate,  Nialli Meeks who is now in grade 10, battle this sickness. So collectively the Grade 10 and 13 students thought we would dedicate this year’s CAS project to her as she courageously battles this life long illness and to everyone else in this country who struggles daily with the symptoms.

For about 3 weeks students from all grades worked hard going to family, friends and neighbors to get sponsorship and participants for the day. While some of us could barely do 5 laps, the rare few were clocking 30+ laps!

And in the end, we raised a grand total of almost $400,000, which is 62% more than our goal! All the money was presented to Dr. King from the Mona Sickle Cell Center during this week’s assembly, to purchase equipment that will improve the care for those who suffer with sickle cell disease.

The walkathon had an amazing turnout!
Thanks to everyone who supported!

Grade 12.2's CAS Project!

I'm sure we'd all love to take a breather from our hard IB and High School lives to compete in an intense dance-off or Fifa tourney? Release your frustration from that math packet or stop tearing out your hair for a couple hours from that physics past paper that's been wracking your brain. 

Saturday February 2nd is your day! Sign up for the Fifa Tournament or Ultimate Dance-off brought to you by Grade 12.2! It's their CAS project so while you dance or twiddle your thumbs while playing Fifa 13, your money will be going towards helping the less fortunate, that's always a good thing right? Yes! 

So, you got it? 
PAC, SATURDAY FEB 2ND, BATTLE IN JUST DANCE AND FIFA! 


Be there.
