Together-and-by-Association , the camp that signifies a Josephian ’ s transition from lower to upper secondary , from one class to another , and from shorts to long pants . Camp TABA is a means to help the Secondary Threes settle into our new classes , and to be comfortable with our newfound friends and the teachers . Without this camp , my classmates would not have known each other or discovered each other ’ s stories . We could have been just a random group of boys being forced together , little more than the strangers we once were . The activities at the camp would have been boring , if not for the presence of my new classmates . Camp TABA bonded Josephians to form friendships that will last for the rest of our lives .

As a Catholic and Lasallian school , SJI Senior School is committed to developing every student ’ s character and to helping them realize their academic potential , so that they become men and women whose education empowers them to make a positive difference in the world . The good IBDP results of the 2014 cohort are a testament of the quality of the balanced and holistic education offered at SJI . The school is particularly proud of its students ’ diverse contributions made to the larger community through their service and leadership . SJI applauds their fine performance .
