Good morning from 9th grade! If you're reading this, it might have been a while since you were in 9th grade (or maybe not). If you're curious to see—or be reminded of—what a 9th-grade school day looks like, read on!

Talking about menstruation is still taboo in many parts of the world and numerous myths continue to surround this topic. At the School of Hope we believe in the importance of education and access to reliable information so that our female students learn to know and understand their own bodies better.

For our ninth-grade students, this year marks a very important moment in their lives. In a few months, this amazing group will graduate from the School of Hope and embark on a new path that will bring them closer to achieving their dreams. For this reason, at our school, we work every day to ensure our students are as well prepared as possible for this moment.
