August 9, 2012 • 8th grader and NJHS President, Cyndal Abad, leads everyone in a fun ice breaker during the student assembly.
Alternative Classroom Learning Experience | May 18
The SBCS Student Council has prepared a fun and unique learning experience for our students. Aside from the exciting Carnival treat like the Jumper, we would like to offer our students an alternative classroom learning experience – extraordinary subjects they can learn in a non-classroom set-up. We have tapped our very talented teachers to teach a different kind of lesson on that day.
