SLC Reaches Out SLC REACHES OUT
Thursday, April 18th is a day dedicated to giving back to the community. Last year, hundreds of students and employees of Champlain St. Lawrence dedicated one day to make a difference by taking on volunteer projects that meet the needs of the Greater Quebec Area community. We want to do even better this year!
Students and staff are asked to look around them and see where they can help and donate some of their time.  Come to room 272 to register your interest or your activity, individually or as a group and REACH OUT.  
This year, to add a little bit more fun, we will present a trophy to the group or program that will have been the most active on this day.
We look forward to this event so come and join us to lend a helping hand to our community. Engage your teachers in the process!
