Oh, Dasher, Prancer, Dannah and Blitzen!


'Twas the month before Christmas and all through the school
the green bees were abuzzing saying service is cool. 
The needs of the local communities were given with care,
In hopes that an SIA student would soon be there.
When out on the street there arose such a clatter
they sprang from their desks to see what was the matter
When what to their wondering eyes should appear?
But a BA student dressed in green uniform gear
While the little children at St. James were learning how to play basketball and solve their mathematical equations,
she was also visiting the elderly, 
 playing bingo and singing on special occasions.

Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen! 
On Comet! On Cupid! on,on Dannah and Blitzen!
To the videos on human trafficking! to the baking of cupcakes and all!
She is our unsung hero and only a little over five feet tall.

She spoke not a word, since helping was her natural approach.
As tutor, and alter server and little kid's coach.
It is right, it is good , that we gather here today
to recognize Dannah Laguitan as our SIA hero, and applaud her you may.

Congratulations Dannah as our unsung hero of the month!
