Our senior Analenis Otero took the TEDx stage last week as the event`s youngest presenter, showcasing her vision for a more sustainable future!
Her business idea transforms sugarcane into biodegradable packaging, offering an alternative to plastic. Even more exciting, her product has already been tested at our in-school cafeteria, the Hungry Tiger!
Congratulations, Analenis, for bringing creativity, entrepreneurship, and environmental awareness together!

OUR TIGERS MADE THEIR MARK ON THE MARKET!
Our Tigers` hard work paid dividends!
Congratulations to Chanyoung Park and Chanil Park for being named finalists in Harvard`s Global Stock Market Challenge, an international investment competition organized through Learn with Leaders!
As part of this global initiative, which has reached over 3,000 students from more than 1,150 schools, our Tigers put their financial knowledge, analytical thinking, and strategic decision-making skills to the test.
Throughout the competition, participants developed investment portfolios, analyzed market trends, and built professional investment theses, applying their knowledge to real-world financial scenarios.
The competition culminated in a final stage where top-performing teams had the opportunity to present and defend their investment strategies before a panel of judges.
We are incredibly proud of Chanyoung and Chanil for this outstanding achievement, demonstrating their dedication, financial knowledge, and commitment to excellence on an international stage!
Way to go, Tigers! π―π

π Honorable Mention β Best Speaker: Chanyoung Park and Sara Vlahos
But beyond the awards, one accomplishment truly stands out: our debaters competed without access to technology or electronic devices. They developed their arguments using only printed resources, prior knowledge, critical thinking, and teamwork.

Congratulations, Tigers!
