Week 5 in the Middle!

International Day:

Middle School students enjoyed an amazing international dessert buffet on Friday, September 25th following their lunch.  Sincere thanks to our parent volunteers for your contributions and for helping hand out the treats - it was a great way to celebrate our cultural diversity here at AISB.

Students also enjoyed dressing in colours of their national flag or traditional dress as you can see from the following photos . . .






MAP Test Results:

Test results were distributed to students on Wednesday, September 23rd along with supporting documentation.  As a staff, we are in the process of analyzing the results in order to best support student learning.  As recommended in earlier communications, we encourage you to review your child's progress with the MAP results in hopes of generating conversations about areas for future growth.

Student Life / Walk the Wish:


It has been another exciting and busy week in our Middle School! and students distributed pledge forms for our Walk The Wish Event. , we were honored to receive the visit of Dr.Orsolya Gudor from Roszakert Medical Clinic who spent part of our lunch time period explaining the Medical conditions our wish kids are having to deal with everyday of their lives. On Friday after school, 140 Middle School Students decided to brave the pouring rain and Walked The Wish. 

This week was also the start of our full Fall Activities Program and our offering of the first Hosted Activity: Etiquette Club. Lastly, 10 Middle School students will be going to the AGH Telek Dog Shelter morning to bring love and joy to the 200+ dogs at the shelter. Thank you for all your support this week and stay tuned next week for more fun and mayhem!!!

Freedom from Chemical Dependancy (FCD):

This week you and your child had the opportunity to meet Ms. Stephanie Kootsikas, our visiting presenter for Freedom from Chemical Dependency (FCD).  Our MS Students met with Ms. Stephanie to learn about healthy choices and habits.  Parents were able to meet Ms. Kootsikas at an evening presentation, as well as at a noontime PSA meeting.  Ms. Kootsikas will be contributing an article to next weeks edition of NEWS from the MIDDLE.
