Viking Alliance is a newly formed
club at Geneva Middle School South that will have its first meeting after
school this Friday 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, that differences make a community stronger and if you enjoy lively discussion about diversity and inclusion, then this club is for you.
