While instrumental music plays in the background, Sophomores in Life Skills work on building their relationship bank accounts by writing positive messages to their teachers. This random act of kindness also makes a deposit into their personal bank account as well.
Seniors in Life Skills work diligently to meet the weekly scholarship requirements for their post-secondary educational options.
