Please complete the ISB re-enrollment process for 2017-18
Dear ISB Parent/Guardian,
It is that time of year again when we need to ask you to please confirm the enrollment of your child/children for the next school year. This re-enrollment process is important for us to be able to make accurate assessments of our enrollment for the 2017/18 school year. We sincerely hope that your family will be returning to ISB.
Our parents are the foundation of our school and it is with your trust and support that we can continue to serve the needs of all our learners. This, our 65th year, has been a celebration of our community and we want to thank you for your ongoing partnership with us in educating your child/children.
In order to inform us of your intention to stay at or leave ISB next year, please login to your Powerschool account and choose the ‘Re-enrollment’ button on the left-hand side. Should you not be in a situation to confirm your child/children’s enrollment at this time, we still request that you register through Powerschool as “not sure” and inform us of your reason. Seats will become limited at certain grade levels, therefore we urge you to stay in regular contact to ensure a seat is saved for your child/children.
PLEASE COMPLETE YOUR RE-ENROLLMENT INTENTION ON OR BEFORE FRIDAY, 17th MARCH, 2017.
If you have questions about this process, please contact re-enrollment@isb.ac.th
If you have technical difficulties or are unable to login to powerschool please email trin@isb.ac.th
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
The Re-Enrollment Team
