“In a world where it seems no-one agrees on anything, a world where politics divides, religion divides, and race and even cultural borders seem to divide, dignity is something that everyone can agree on.” ~ Global Dignity Co-Founders
Dignity is not something that has to be recognized for just one day. This is why Beachonhouse School System always strives hard to develop the strong empathetic skills in students throughout the year. This year as well BSS Mirpur organized a plethora of different activities throughout the dignity week celebrations to inculcate in students the idea that their dignity is interdependent with dignity of others. To get respect they have to give respect.
