EAGLE TRACT

Dear Eagle Family,

We are excited to welcome our school community to an amazing school year! As we begin this journey together, we want to emphasize the vital role that collaboration between home and school plays in our students' success. Research consistently shows that when parents are actively involved in their child’s education, the results are outstanding.

In the International Baccalaureate (IB) framework, parental involvement is crucial. We encourage parents to engage actively in their child's education by supporting their learning at home, participating in school events, and maintaining open communication with the school. Your partnership is essential in helping students thrive academically and personally.

When we work together, we create a strong support system that fosters student achievement and well-being.

Let us team up to create the best possible experience for our children and an enriching year for our school community. Thank you for your continued support and dedication.

Team C.I.A.

Partnering with Parents!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Gifty Agbeshie

Ag. Head of School

We organized series of training sessions for the PYP, MYP and Eagle foundation Year group facilitators to begin the academic year. The Training sessions were aimed at re-echoing some practices that had already been done and also to educate the facilitators on new ideas they could use to ensure that the students have a good learning experience. We touched on topics such as Assessment, Differentiated Learning Collecting, Storing, and using data to inform student learning, The PYP Teacher Capabilities (Inquiry, social constructivism principle), Connecting Curriculum Documents for an Effective Unit Planner (Scope & Sequence, POI, SOW, Flow of Unit, Lesson Plans), Transdisciplinary Learning and Interdisciplinary Learning as well as Exploring effective student-centered teaching and learning practices.

The Training sessions were led by Head Facilitators, the Academic Director and Subject Supervisors.

We were delighted to welcome new families to the Eagle family at our Parent Orientation! This informative session introduced our school's values, the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, and the comprehensive support systems in place for both students and parents. By reviewing key excerpts from the student/parent handbook, we aimed to empower new families with knowledge and connection to our school community. It was a wonderful opportunity for them to feel informed, supported, and embraced as part of our Eagle family.

Our school held an excellent Open House function on August 3, 2024, to kick off the new and exciting school year. The visit gave parents and students an opportunity to interact with our committed facilitators and discover the dynamic environment which our IB program has to offer.

This project was titled the Picasso challenge. Students were tasked to create their own art pieces inspired by Pablo Picasso.

The entire C.I.A. community participated in a successful fire drill on Tuesday, August 20, 2024 which was observed by fire department authorities. Through this essential exercise, it was ensured that all facilitators, staff, and learners are aware of the emergency safety procedures and are adequately prepared.

Congratulations to Seyram Nyako, the triumphant winner of Spell It Right 2024!

We are delighted to share her extraordinary experience, which took her on an all-expenses-paid trip to Dubai.

Accompanied by her mother and our Acting Head of School, Seyram embarked on an unforgettable journey, exploring the city's iconic landmarks, including the Museum of the Future, Mohammed Bin Rashid Library, and the breathtaking Fountain Show at Dubai Khalifa.

Her adventure continued with a visit to the captivating Aquarium in Dubai Mall and an exhilarating Desert Safari. This incredible trip was a perfect blend of education and thrills, creating lifelong memories.

We extend our warmest congratulations to Seyram for her outstanding achievement and hope that her story inspires others.
