We are very proud of our Class of 2021 5th graders! We honored our students this week and celebrated with their families. Thank you to our dedicated families who have shared these wonderful students with us. We also would like to extend a big congrats and appreciation to our faculty who have taught them along the way and especially to this year's teaching team: Ms. Virginie, Mr. Cedric, Ms. Sarah, and Ms. Gina.
Congrats to Mathieu F., Xavier H., Vivienne H., Isabella H., Valeria H., Hana M., Chloe M., Marcelo Q., Emma R., Mateo S., Donovan W., Sophia Y., Penelope B., Sacha B., Carmen D., Yelena K., Autymn Rose L., Hadrien M., Marc-Olivier M., Alison N., Jude P., Alva T., & Samrawit W. for all your accomplishments and growth in elementary school!

Next week, for our last week of school, let's show our school spirit! Uniforms are not required, and students may wear our school colors however they wish, as long as it is appropriate. So, color that hair at home, sport those temporary tattoos, and let's see some blue, white, and green! Go AIS Owls!

HOS eCommuniqué: A Farewell to Colleagues. A Farewell to Friends.
The start of each new school year brings new people into our lives--people we will remember for a lifetime. The end of each school year means that some of our friends will be moving on to new adventures, near and far. In this week's Head of School eCommuniqué, Jacques shares his thanks to several colleagues who will be moving on to new adventures after their many years of service at AIS. Merci, gracias, and thank you to you all for your invaluable contributions to the AIS Community. We look forward to crossing paths again!
