Carma Cornea, the principal of Dr. E.P. Scarlett High School, says this year some of the Grade 12 students mentored the Grade 3 students who all benefited from the interaction. "It's great to have the little kids come because they can see where they're going to go one day, and we want to tour them around the school and see different parts of it," she said. "So high school is something that they'll really look forward to."On Tuesday, Grade 3 students from Sundance, Janet Johnstone, Sam Livingston and Chinook Park schools filled boxes with items that are important to them and brought them to Dr. E.P.
Jacob Remple is one of more than 200 Grade 3 students at the event and says he already knows some Spanish in addition to his French studies. "Even if I don't use my French to communicate, I think it's helped me develop my brain in different ways that will let me overcome challenges and also lets me look at the world in different ways."
