Yesterday’s Olympics and today’s final assembly of the term were apt examples of how fortunate we have been this year to have our students and teachers learning together on campus for this entire term. As schools like us around the world remained in or returned to online schooling, we stayed open all semester.
Thanks to the careful attention of Thailand and the joint effort of our community to keep students safe and campus open, our students were able to learn in classrooms, engage with their classmates, play sports, perform on stage, and participate in activities.
At times our on campus rules and guidelines may have seemed overly strict, but it has allowed us to join in the combined efforts of the people of Thailand to do our part to prevent any spread.
On behalf of Cindy Plantecoste and myself, I want to thank our community for their ongoing support and for helping keep us open for students. Thank you to our teachers and counselors for their on-going flexibility and attention to students wellbeing. Trying times can often reveal the most about an institution. This semester has shown that our Middle School team demonstrate our values of care, courage, responsibility and commitment.
For that, and the semester we’ve been able to have, we are incredibly grateful.
We wish everyone in our community a lovely holiday and a Happy New Year!
See you in 2021!
