Study Skills Sessions
The 2025 school year kicked off with our annual Study Skills Sessions. Students learned tips and tricks to get the new school year off to a great start and had a chance to ask questions of students who were in their place not long ago. The two sessions were a great success thanks to our amazing teacher, Leslie Andre, and our student panelists.
