Heroes inspire us. They allow us to dream dreams of who and what we want to become in the future.In our schools, the stories we tell of our school heroes - the founders, teachers and students who have made a difference - are often seeds from which our young begin their own growth into the fullness of the persons they eventually become.
Some of our schools now share the stories of heroes they celebrate.
from Assumption Vocational Institute:
Our successful alumni are our heroes. From being school drop outs to graduates with a university education, these are our real heroes. The Brothers too are our heroes, in their exemplary dedication to help the poor and underprivileged and also in educating them.
