The team organized several activities throughout the week, like giving students a personalized card with words of encouragement, signed by their counsellor, to celebrate their efforts.

As a Student-Parent Resource Worker (SPRW), my goal is to contribute to the success of youth who will be the citizens of tomorrow.
