 GHANA STUDENT TEACHER REUNION 


The student teachers that traveled to Ghana, West Africa, attended a reunion in honor of their host mother, Mrs. Agnes Batsa, who visited campus for the reunion get-together. The host mother, fondly called Auntie Agnes, cooked and presented an authentic Ghanaian meal for the Ghana alumni and their families.
Thank you, Auntie Agnes! Thank you,  our alumni. We are extremely proud of you!
