Global Citizenship Week review
Peter Roback
peterro@isb.ac.th
After all the planning, booking, and anticipation, GCW finally arrived and our students have been engaged in wonderful learning around the globe. In addition to 11 local courses in Bangkok – ranging from service, to exploration, to career internships – students traveled to 14 locations throughout Thailand and 15 countries around the world. Amazing experiences for all, focused on global issues and service learning.
Students have started to arrive home with the majority of groups returning this weekend. They return with memories and new perspectives. We like to think that we bring our students back from GCW changed, but unharmed. We hope that every student shares the incredible experiences they have had while also taking time to process the hardships and risks taken along the journey. We encourage all of you to ask each student to reflect on their learning from the week as these conversations are critical in making connections and applying learning to new situations and perspectives.

Hard to believe, but our High School seniors will graduate in just under 4 months. Graduation is on Friday, June 6th, so mark your calendars. In preparation, the Graduation Committee is starting to take orders for formal graduation announcements that can be sent to your friends and relatives. For samples please open the attachment and scroll down to the scan copy of the 2013 card.
Orders can be made online from Friday 7th February or in person at the HS cafeteria from 10:00am – 12:00pm on the following dates: Thurs 13th Feb, Thurs 27th Feb, Fri 28th Feb, Thurs 6th March and Thurs 13th March. On Friday 14th March there will be a table set up outside Rajendra Hall throughout the day of HS parent teacher conferences.
Please note that payment is required at the time you are ordering your announcements. No order will be placed until full payment has been made. If you place your order online please come by to pay on one of the above dates.
No orders will be accepted after Monday 17th March. We are working with the printer this year to have the graduation announcements card sets back to parents before Songkran break if possible so there will be more time to mail them to overseas guests.
Don’t wait. Order yours right away so you are not disappointed. You can also go to this google document for the order form.
