Common Ground
Returning this year is Common Ground. Common Ground aims to foster a sense of community and belonging among middle school and high school students.
Once a month, the students will split up into groups based on their grade level and engage in fun activities, meaningful discussions, and inspiring talks about issues that they can have among their peers.
It will be during Crossroads hours, 7:00-8:30pm, on October 5, November 9, December 14, January 25, February 22, March 22, April 19, and May 10.
