Hearts for the Staff

To show appreciation for the teachers and staff of South Garland High School, the ELL Leadership Students created hand-made heart cards for their teachers.  The cards had some quotes about love. The students also brought some chocolates that they attached to the heart cards.  The students hand delivered some of the cards on February 13th while some cards were placed in teacher's boxes.  The project leaders, Martha Torres and Marina Barrios really worked hard on making this a success.  The whole class and the officers did their very best to support this endeavor.  All in all, it was a great day of spreading love through effort and hard work.

National Counseling Week

Last February 2-6, 2015, student leaders showed appreciation for the Counselors during the National Counseling Week.  The leaders made cards and bookmarks for their counselors, and they wrote messages to show their appreciation for them.

Visit to Nursing Home

Last December 15, 2014, the ELL Student Leadership Class went to visit ABBA Care Nursing Home. The students from B3 and B4 brought stuffed toys to give as gifts for the elderly.  Each class also practiced and performed to give joy to the residents.  B3 danced and sang Jingle Bell Rock and Feliz Navidad, and B4 gave an interpretation of Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer.  The last activity they did was to play Bingo with the residents, and the students awarded them with prizes.  The students had a great experience, and a lot of them wanted to stay and go back in order to visit the people they got to know.  It was a great way to end the semester for the leaders.
