TAG (Teachers and Girls) Team
The TAG team is a vehicle for introducing the 7th and 8th grade girls to the fundamentals of an advisory program. Groups have 7 to 9 students and are grade specific. Each group is assigned a faculty member and throughout the year they assemble for a wide range of activities, assemblies and discussions. From the team building activities in the fall, community service projects throughout the year, and our Peer Education program, the TAG teams create the small group experience for our girls.
Strong Circles/Big and Little Sisters
Every 5th, 6th, and 7th grade girl is assigned an 8th grade Big Sister. Ideally, sisters develop a relationship throughout the year in which the big sister offers guidance and answers questions. Big Sister/Little Sister groupings combine into a Strong Circle. These cross-grade groupings are valuable for the girls to get to know students in other grades. This provides both support and sharing for the younger girls while promoting leadership for the older girls. Throughout the year, Strong Circles participate in numerous activities such as goûter, trivia competitions, and special lunches.
