“After spending my childhood and teenage years at SNC as a student, I had the honor of graduating in 1984 and headed straight to the Lebanese University where I pursued higher education with a degree in Philosophy. It wasn’t long before I rejoined SNC again this time as a teacher in 1990.
30 years later, I am now privileged to call this place home! Much of my personal development as an individual was due to the school trusting me in both educational and administrative roles where I was in charge of the elementary section for 19 years aside to my teaching duties.’’

My experience at SNC has taught me one fundamental thing – To be unique and never give up on my gift,’’ said Rita, a successful alumna who graduated from ESMOD ranking first with an honor degree. She stresses on the importance of the support she was given at SNC: “It might be weird to build your future off of an artistic talent, but if you got the right amount of encouragement then you will succeed which is exactly what the teachers at SNC helped me to believe.

I am thankful to SNC for giving me such an opportunity.” After her graduation, Rita was invited by the French embassy to Paris to tour fashion workshops there.
