BIOLOGY CLASS WORKING IN THE SCIENCE LAB
Laboratory sciences have begun taking on a more vital role in the high school science curriculum at Mesrobian. The 9th grade Biology class, taught by Miss Georgina Bekerian, began dissecting pigs to learn about anatomy. In preparation for the dissection, students were given a link on the teacher’s website in order to follow a virtual dissection online prior to their lab assignment. They also had to complete worksheets prior to working in our science lab so they were fully prepared with the knowledge necessary to make the lab work a meaningful learning experience.

International Night Attended by Record Numbers
International Night Attended by Record Numbers
On Friday, May 3rd, Armenian Mesrobian School celebrated International Night. The annual event highlighted the school's commitment to cultural awareness and ethnic diversity. The school wide event, organized by Mesrobian's Parent Faculty Club, was held on school grounds and attended by over 500 guests.
Rows of white tents filled Mesrobian's beautiful campus. Each tent was adorned with flags and decorations native to the countries they represented. As guests strolled in they were greeted by music, warm weather and the aroma of food from around the globe. Students talents were showcased as they performed dances choreographed by teachers, volunteers, and the students themselves. Parents also had a chance to display their decorating and cooking talents as each class hosted its own booth. As a special treat, Mr. Jahziel Curtis performed, "I Can See Clearly Now" with the 6th Graders.
As the sun set, all the students gathered to sing a final song, "It's a Small World", to represent world unity and peace. At the close of the evening, the school's annual raffle was drawn. Lucky winners went home with great prizes, including a MacBook Air and an iPad mini, just to name a few. Prizes were graciously donated by community organizations, including Club Mesrobian Alumni, Holy Cross Board of Trustees, Mesrobian Support Group and Disney Resorts.
International Night was sponsored by generous contributions from local businesses and families in the community. Local merchants and parents also made donations of food and drinks which helped make the event an even greater success. Mesrobian School continues to thrive and grow with the support of our sponsors.
International Night is an annual event and each year is more successful, with great food, fabulous entertainment by our students and, of course, our community which comes out to support our event.

Open House A Success!
Among the hundreds of people at Armenian
Mesrobian School’s Open House on April 27, 2013 were students, faculty, staff,
parents, alumni, future and prospective students and families, community
members, and guests. The unprecedented
Open House – sponsored by the School’s Alumni Organization, Club Mesrobian- at
the beautifully renovated campus proudly showcased for the community the
school’s many strengths and accomplishments and gave an opportunity to unveil
and share some plans to come.
Greeted by student ambassadors, guests
enjoyed tours and simply wandering around the school campus where they saw
first-hand, among other things, students participating in choir rehearsals,
soccer practice, cooking and demonstrations.
Guests were encouraged to join students in the art class to create their
own ceramic art work in the school’s art studio, which has its own kiln,
allowing students to see their projects through from concept to final product. Younger children gathered for story time in
the school’s Karapetian Library, which is currently being redesigned to include
an area for storytelling as well as a puppet theatre.
All classrooms were open to guests, who
saw high-quality student work prominently and proudly displayed. Along the way, people had the opportunity to
visit the school’s science lab, where stations were set up for exploration. Among the highlights were the student-led
demonstrations of the school’s newly acquired and cutting-edge interactive
technology in the Ter-Minasian Computer Lab.
