wish to express our gratitude to all our parents and students for opening their
heart this holiday season to share with those around you. The donations of the
disinfectant were delivered to FUNDACION
ABRIGO last week in the name
of our student body. The shoes and socks that were given for the children at NUESTROS PEQUENOS HERMANOS are ready to be handed out at a
Christmas event at the orphanage. Your contributions for the SUPPORT PERSONNEL HOLIDAY BASKETS are being organized and will be
given to them this Wednesday. Since
all these donations were
voluntary, we deeply appreciate our community’s willingness to reach
out and share with others.
DPTO NEWS- The DPTO wishes to remind the parents who have not yet done
so, to please pay the L.200.00 fee to support the DPTO. This
contribution fee was agreed upon on the last Assembly, and is a vital
contribution in order to keep on planning fun events for all of our school
community to enjoy! You can
leave the payment with Ms. Carolina at the reception.
We also want to let you know that our DPTO blog has been
updated, so please check it out!

PASSING GRADE ACCORDING TO THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION - We would like to remind parents that the passing grade,
according to new regulations, is 70% for the Ministry of Education. Your child
needs to score at least 70% in order to avoid coming to recuperation exam/s. We
encourage you to check blogs and Engrade on a weekly basis, and to keep close
communications with teachers.
THIS IS WHAT WE
WILL BE COVERING DURING THE WEEK.
