Dear ISB Community,
Campus Reopening Update
We are pleased to report that the reopening of the campus continues to go well. Last week, 1332 students (83%) were learning on campus. To date, no positive ATK results have been reported.
We are very grateful for all of your support with the ATKs and other safety measures as we seek to keep our entire community as safe as possible
ATK Testing – Important
The next ATK must be administered today (Tuesday 5th October) from 4:00pm to 8:00pm – with results uploaded on the ATK Form within that same timeframe. If you need assistance with the ATK Form, please write to help@isb.ac.th
Before returning to campus after October Break, ATK tests must be administered with results uploaded on Sunday 17th October, again from 4:00pm and 8:00pm.
All test results must be entered into the ATK Form within the specified times in order to ensure campus access the following day. The ATK Form is linked to the ID cards and ISB turnstiles system.
Vaccines 12-17 Year Old Students
We are pleased to report that a large number of MS and HS students will be vaccinated this week (first dose). We will soon conduct a survey to ascertain vaccination rates within this age group.
Information for after October Break
After October Break we will continue with the same schedule for at least two weeks. We are exploring the potential to open to 100% of students on a daily basis from Monday 1st November, depending on external conditions. We will communicate again when we know more.
We hope that conditions are such that we can begin offering athletics and activities to students within their cohorts after school and on Saturdays, beginning Monday 18th October. More details to come from the Athletics and Activities offices.
Important – the ATK testing schedule after October Break, starting October 17th, will change to Sundays and Wednesdays to take into account Saturday activities.
