Viking Alliance, a newly formed club
at Geneva Middle School South, will have its first meeting after school on Friday,
October 4th in the Reading Lounge. Viking Alliance is a student-led
club for anyone who would like to do fun activities in a supportive, inclusive
and nonjudgmental atmosphere. Viking Alliance is about valuing all people no matter their cultural beliefs
or their sexual orientation.
If you believe in everyone’s right to be themselves, think that differences make a community stronger and enjoy lively discussion about diversity and inclusion, then this club is for you.

pick up a permission slip soon!
