VOW OF SILENCE

We are taking a stand in the fight against human trafficking.  It is agreed by the World Leaders that education is the answer to protecting our youth from falling victim to this modern day form of slavery. 

We must be a voice for the voiceless.  It is our moral responsibility to help free the oppressed.  Approximately 40% of our student body took a vow of silence to help raise awareness and funds regarding this gross injustice. 

 Each of the students wore black as a sign of their solidarity with their sisters and brothers who were suffering and a statistic that often was as startling as it was saddening.  

Did you ever wonder how blessed we are for our lives in America as compared to children across the continents who are enslaved by child labor?  


It was a silent, but loud call for us to take Compassionate Action.  Working as a partner school with the Frederick Douglass Family Foundation , we are promoting the education of children against the dangers of human trafficking. 

Through the Power of One and the Power of We, we believe we can change the world and change history for the years to come.
