Presentation Grads Build School in Nicaragua
After six months of bonding over planning meetings and fundraising projects, 18 SVHS students, two teachers and a Seeds of Learning volunteer journeyed to Nicaragua over spring break to build a learning center in the rural town of Pedro Arauz.
On the trip were two Presentation grads: Isabel Garon In baseball cap) and Olivia Yazzolino (crouching in white tee) both class of 2012. Their cultural experience was tremendous through their efforts to learn about the local people, speak their language and contribute hard work and sweat toward the building of a learning center.
