LOCKER ROOM PROJECT

Recently, a Nazarian Center gymnasium necessity was finally realized, thanks to the efforts of former AGBU MDS student, Arek Shirvanian. Arek spent over nine hundred hours planning, getting approval, collaborating with others in the physical labor, and finalizing a locker room that students can use for storage of personal items and changing in preparation for sports activities or P.E. classes. During the process of completing the project, Arek was also able to collect donations of over $2500 to fund its realization. Aside from helping our school in a practical manner that will be put to use immediately and serve our students for years to come, Arek is working on receiving an Eagle Scout Award, which only a small percentage of scouts ever achieve. We thank Arek, the Shirvanian family and other contributors, and the athletic department for coming together for the betterment of our school facilities. The locker room will be an asset in the maximizing of educational time students spend engaged in the activities that matter most.

HEALTH & MEDICINE FOCUS GROUP FIELD TRIP

On Wednesday, May 15th, our high school kicked off the first Health & Medicine Focus Group event. The field trip destination was the UCLA Anatomy Lab / Medical Center. The 9th grade members (13 in all) of this focus group were able to view human brains and even handle a spinal cord while listening to a lecture by a neurosurgeon and UCLA Professor of Surgery. The members also attended a discussion / lecture with AGBU MDS alumnus Dr. Vatche Agopian, Assistant Professor of Surgery in the division of Liver and Pancreas Transplantation, about surgical tools and anatomy; students were then able to visit the room where UCLA medical students practice surgical techniques. This was an inspirational, eye-opening, and educational way to start off the focus group program, and AGBU MDS thanks Dr. Agopian for making this trip a reality.
