Today was Senior Health Day. This mandatory program for all seniors is part of a continuum of learning through our grade-level seminars. The curriculum helps students navigate their overall health and well-being as they mature from “tweens” to young adults.

The German exchange students capped off their two week visit to Burroughs (and St. Louis) with a trip to the ballpark to watch the Cardinals take on the Pirates (and win!). Safe travels to Chicago and then back home to Germany!
