On Saturday March 6, 14 upper school students in the Chinese language classes were up bright and early to volunteer with the Capital Area Food Bank to pack and distribute food to a mostly Chinese-speaking population in downtown DC. Participating in the event were Tyler Davis, Micah Gans, Ellie Anderson, Janiyah Basil, Simone Campbell-Hayes, Nina-Skye Johnson, Charlotte Lin, Isabelle Charles, Kayla Park, Cian Fitzgerald, Elias Baldwin, Kayden Kidd, Will Paxson, and Aidan Fitzgerald. The students showed great teamwork in checking in residents and diligently packing bags and boxes of food and loading them into residents’ carts and bags, all while eagerly practicing their Chinese. These students truly embodied the spirit of service at Latin. The students were joined by their Chinese teachers, Mr. Liu and Ms. Han, and parent, Ms. Paxson.
