Learn, Lead, Love
When you’ve been working in the educational field for far too long, and have been painstakingly following the endless updates on the latest teaching procedures and techniques, you’d reach a point where all theories and approaches become overwhelmingly intertwined! And you’d be at a total loss for choices. Amidst all this uncertainty, the unforgettable wisdom of Socrates resonates through Edith Hamilton’s reminding us that he never said, “I know; learn from me.’ He said, rather, “Look into your own selves and find the spark of truth that God has put into every heart and that only YOU can kindle to a flame.” That’s a substantial and sound start in the learning process: Resolve! We, at BESGB, have come a long way in incorporating innovative teaching strategies whose benefits are being harvested on a daily basis. We also thrive on continuous professional development that is pivotal for today’s fast paced evolution. However, the educational process will always be culminated by the learner’s drive, earnestness, and desire to learn! With this embracing attitude, our learners will eventually begin to demonstrate leadership attributes by motivating, inspiring, and shepherding one an-
other. And that’s another fundamental educational aspect BESGB advocates and nurtures. Our young leaders are urged to not only use their creative abilities and imagination, but also to extend their acquired knowledge and work collaboratively as well as fairly independently. They are also encouraged to show empathy, kindness, and understanding, rather than mistakenly associate leadership with dominance and control. These days, we are surrounded by people fighting the good fights, and toiling to make ends meet, and as we marvel at those who envelope these fighters with strength and devotion, we realize something so beautiful and heartwarming: love alone is real!! No intelligence, no learning, no experience, no wisdom, and certainly no wealth or material possession will ever take the place of real love! And this piece of poetry by Rumi says it all: “How can you ever hope to know the Beloved Without becoming in every cell the Lover? And when you are the Lover at last, you don’t care. Whatever you know, or don’t – only Love is real!” Samer Al Jamal Principal #Learn_Lead_LoveBESGB

Down Syndrome Day Our continuous campaigns to foster the unifying virtue of empathy have paid off in a most rewarding and touching manner on Wednesday the 21st of Mach, International Down Syndrome Day. Grade 11 students’ presentation on Down Syndrome moved the audience to tears, honored the very special guests who graced our theaters, and inspired everyone present to try and emulate the amazing spirit of the children with Down Syndrome. The colorful socks worn by all students highlight a universal day, as a token of gratitude to the renowned socks business tycoon with Down Syndrome.

English Play “Politically Correct”
In a world fixated on politically correct expressions and terminology, people seem to forget the real acts of kindnesses towards each other, and reduce human interaction to what is morally in tune with mainstream rhetoric. That is what the play, “Politically Correct Everything” underscores, by twisting two beloved fairytales into hilarious versions of extreme modern day conversations, as well as expectations!!!!! A great performance by BESGB’s Secondary students. The Play was written and directed by Mrs. Amal Ibrahim
