Fontbonne Hall starts guest speaker circuit to empower students
Fontbonne Hall Academy students have been exposed to a wide variety of viewpoints, thanks to the school’s Guest Speaker Circuit, a new program in which speakers are invited to the school to share tips on how to get ahead.
“We are proud to have established the ‘Guest-Speaker Circuit’ as it opens educational opportunities for our students and community to which they may not have otherwise been exposed. We hope to expand this opportunity, not only within our Fontbonne community, but also to the greater Bay Ridge community thus continuing and building upon Fontbonne’s long-established presence here,” Principal Mary Ann Spicijaric said.
The guests are usually experts in a variety of fields who address students either in class, in an assembly format or after school. Fontbonne Hall Academy is a Catholic high school for girls located on Shore Road and 99th Street in Bay Ridge.
