What a Year!
by Dennis Harter
dennish@isb.ac.th
Wow, that was fast! It must have been a pretty fun year, because time has certainly flown! We hope that our students have had a wonderful year of learning, friendships and fun. Middle school has its ups and downs – it really is a roller coaster!
We are so proud of these students for the way they have carried themselves through both the toughest of times and the fun times.
We continue to try and be a community that cares for each other, looks out for EVERYONE, and believes that we are better if we honor and appreciate everyone for who they are. Thank you from all of the teachers, counselors and admin for your part as parents in helping us grow to be that community.
We have seen so much growth in the students this year: in learning (so, so much learning), in maturity, in discovering their passions, and in caring for one another. Through that all, we have also had a lot of fun and celebrated each unique child for what they bring to us all.
To our departing families, please remember that you will always be part of our ISB family Keep in touch! Once a Panther … Always a Panther!
We wish you a wonderful summer. Get rest. We hope your child has plenty of time to spend with family and friends.
Travel safe.
And encourage your child to read, read, and read as much as they can and whatever they want.
From Mr. Oms, Mrs. Plantecoste, myself and all of our faculty and staff, thank you for a wonderful year and have a safe and restful break!
MS Semester 2 Report Cards
Your child’s Semester 2 report card is now available (after 12:00pm on Thursday, June 9th) to download as a PDF through PowerSchool. Please note that parents and students will not be able to access and download the report card if a report card hold has been placed on a student’s account. Once the report card hold has been cleared, records will be released and access to PowerSchool restored.
Reminder, for all students leaving ISB end of this semester, if you haven’t already picked up your package containing your school records and official copy of your Semester 2 Report Card, see Khun Natt in the MS Counseling Office.
Student Supplies for the 2016-17 School Year
The ISB Bookstore will prepare a packet of supplies for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. There is no need to buy supplies over the summer as this packet should cover students’ needs. The package includes pencils, pens, accordion folders and notebooks for their studies. The 6th grade packet will cost about 1250 baht. The 7th and 8th grade supply packets will cost about 750 baht. They can be bought at the ISB Bookstore starting on August 4th.
