Schedule Changes Have Come and Gone
Students’ schedules are now “set in stone” as all changes have been finalized. Have a great semester all.
We apologize in the Counseling Office for the fact that a number of universities that were scheduled to come to ISB, decided to postpone their visits due to the political situation in Thailand. All the schools expressed a desire to come as soon as their respective schools give them permission to travel in Thailand again. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Seniors: Hopefully you finished submitting your applications that are due by February 1st with your counselor – if not, better start looking for some schools with later deadlines! We have sent the updated transcript and what’s called a “Mid-Year Report” to every school for every Senior. One less thing for you to worry about. Also, please let us know of any results that you’ve heard from universities. Thanks.
Juniors: Junior Seminar #3 is January 29th and 30th during your free period or flex January 30th. A most important seminar. There is University Night for Grade 11 parents on the 30th at 6:30 pm in MPB-1. Make sure that your parents attend so that they can be informed and help you with university stuff! Don’t forget to finish the Junior Packet that you received at Junior Seminar. Parents, kindly complete the Parent Profile to help your counselor get a better idea of what a nice young person your son/daughter is!
Sophomores – Make-up for Sophomore Seminar is on Monday, January 27th, in room 203 from 2:10-3:00. You’ll find out what people like yourself study in university and tend to do for a living. You might be surprised about the results!
Freshmen – Many of you have a free period for the first time this semester. Do you know how to use it wisely? What do you do during your free period? Study? Ask for help from teachers? Catch up on Facebook? Eat? Sleep? Hang out with friends? All of the above? What is the optimum use of time in a free period? Do you know? Ask your counselor!!
