Middle School Model UN Updates!
There are no General Assemblies for middle schoolers this week, but that doesn't mean we're resting on our laurels! Civitas staff has 4 class visits this week at Rogers Middle, John Burroughs, Whitfield, and Crossroads College Prep. Students and teachers are putting the finishing touches on resolutions and gearing up for their upcoming field trips. Our next in-person General Assemblies will be April 28 & April 29. To see photos and resolutions from all General Assemblies, click here.
