The students also have a Youth Center which is a place for students of all the schools to meet, play games, and have social events.

Mailed
The students from North Andover Middle School have completed their artwork. I must say it was a challenge to encourage the students to create large images so they could be easily seen. The follow-up discussions regarding the values and depiction of water were very informative. We are looking forward to hearing from our partner country real soon!

Working Hard
Students at the North Andover Middle School, from North Andover MA are working together to create their art work. We are struggling to meet the deadline, but have reworked our schedule to fit time in. The students on teams 6C and 6F have had some very interesting conversation regarding values and our culture. We are all looking forward to reviewing the final products!
