[00:12:07]>> Thank you. Continuing with the theme of whole child learning in addition to rigorous academics, BAOP also focuses on the social emotional development of its students. Each year, each grade focuses on a different character trait, helping our young scholars learn how to handle themselves with dignity, integrity, and respect. In sixth grade, our character trait is compassion. In their own words, compassion is a combination of empathy, kindness, caring, and volunteering to help others, and much more. These students were the embodiment of compassion this year with kind words, helping hands, and creating that sense of togetherness where no one was left out. Each class has two recipients.
