Yamila Michelle Franco is one of our best GLOBE students. During her years at Notre Dame School doing projects and research, she developed a strong environmental conscience, a deep sense of responsibility with the planet, and a dream to build a better world.
She is now at Victoria University, Canada as the recipient of the US$90,000.00 Council of International Schools scholarship studying BIOLOGY. Well done Yamila! Make us proud!
