By: Nuoyan Wang (Class of 2021) with Marvin Wang (Class of 2020)

In light of COVID-19 and the circumstances that it ensues, the Boys School was unable to put out a yearbook for the 2019-2020 school year. In our efforts to show the memories from this past year, the Archive Team has compiled the links from all the events from this year, and even added all of the previous years. To all the Boys School students, please enjoy this huge collection of memories from our years in IGDVBS!

Apologies to lack of individual phots and of elementary school.
