Their experience at ISD has clearly borne success and reinforces our strength as a school that prepares students for academic success and global citizenship.
It is with great pleasure we celebrate the class of 2024 and welcome them to our global network of over 1,000 alumni, in our 25 th anniversary year. Valedictorian speaker, Marcelle, said: Im really excited for the next few years in HKBU. I chose to major in Social Work because Ive always wanted to help ease the load on the shoulders of the people around me.
Be it emotional distress or social inequalities, social workers are at the disposition of everyone; I think that is beautiful. Ive worked hard to get good grades and get into a good university with financial aid, which resulted in me being the Valedictorian of ISDs class of 2024.
