St. Saviours honors International Day of the Girl
With students worldwide, St. Saviour seniors celebrated International Day of the Girl (IDG) on October 11.
The day was recognized by the United Nations in late 2011, aiming to raise awareness of the importance of young womens education.
This year, the day was even more poignant, occurring two days after 14-year-old Malala Yousufzai of Pakistan was shot by Taliban members for blogging about the right of girls to go to school. The bullet barely missed her brain and she is now recovering in a British hospital.
