IMPORTANT SCHOOL ANNOUNCEMENTS

 
UPDATE ON PAVING - Because of the need to pave the entrance and exit to school and leave the paving unused for sufficient time to harden, the last day of classes before Semana Santa will be March 25.  THERE WILL BE NO CLASSES ON THURSDAY, MARCH 26 AND FRIDAY, MARCH 27.  Faculty and staff may not enter the school without permission during that time period, including Semana Santa.  Any entry will require special arrangements and permission from the Head of School


We will still meet the standard of 180 days of classes set by SACS and by the Honduran Ministry of Education.  Enjoy an extra-long vacation! We will resume classes on April 7, as planned.


EARLY CHILDHOOD AND ELEMENTARY READ-A-THON –This is the last week of our Read-a-thon! Grades Kindergarten through five are participating in this month long competition. Students should be completing the reading logs and turning them in this Wednesday  The winner from each class will go out to lunch as a special treat from our DPTO!

ACCREDITATION PROCESS – SURVEYS FOR PARENTS- Below you will find the link that will take you to the corresponding survey that you need to complete. This is the last week that the surveys will be available for parents!  Please take some time from your busy schedule to complete the survey that will provide valuable information towards the accreditation process and therefore, school improvement.
