International Baccalaureate Students Give Through Service and Action

International Baccalaureate students give through service and action at Barbara Bush Middle School.  Each spring, IB students at Bush participate in a school wide charity project. Students raise funds and collect items for local charities as part of service in action. In years past, our students have helped Operation Kindness, The Children’s Cancer Fund, and Learning for Limbs. For 2018, Bush IB students are supporting the GenesisWomen’s Shelter with donations of toiletries, household goods, and gently used clothing. One 8th grade class (pictured) donated the most items over the course of 6 weeks. IB Coordinator, Tina Flatt, said of the effort, “We thank all IB students who brought donations for this most worthy organization.”
