Campus Access

The ICS campus is open from 7:30 AM – 6:00PM on regular school days and from 8:00 AM – 5:30 PM on weekends. Priority is placed on making the campus available to our students for our wide range of activities throughout the school day, but the campus is also available to parents based on the Campus Access program.

High School students remaining after 3:30 PM are expected to be in a supervised After-School Activity or must be in one of 7 specified places. The "Magnificent 7!" At 4.30pm students must be in an athletic activity or waiting in the Lower Commons for a sibling.

Non-ICS affiliated individuals or groups may not enter campus without a primary ICS ID holder or written permission from ICS Administration.

Early Dismissal on Wednesdays

Every week all faculty and academic staff have professional development workshops on Wednesday afternoons from 2:05PM – 4:30 PM.
All students have an early dismissal on Wednesday at 2:05 PM. and must leave the campus by 2:15 PM unless they are supervised in the Fitness Centre or waiting for a sibling who is part of the 'Home Language' programme.
No organized activities are allowed on campus on Wednesdays.

Students Leaving Campus

Students who leave campus during the school day must have an exit pass from the high school secretary. The secretary will contact the student’s guardian before providing the exit slip. Any student who leaves campus must have a slip signed by the high school secretary if they plan on returning to campus for any reason.

Students who participate in the ICS Eagles sports program must remain on campus until their practices begin at 4:30 PM. Students who leave campus at dismissal time may not return to participate in sports programs.

An exception to this rule are Grade 12 students who have their Grade 12 Permissions form completed on PowerSchool. This is part of Senior privileges.

Student IDs

All students are issued an ICS identification card with name, grade level and photo. HS students must keep their ID cards with them at all times while on campus or participating in school activities off campus. Students may be asked to show the card to any staff or security member at any time and are required to do so. Students are required to use their card to borrow materials from the library.

Lost or stolen ID cards should be reported to the office immediately. A replacement card will be issued for 100 ETB. ICS identification cards are not transferable to others and should not be loaned to others to give them campus access. ID cards may be usable to receive student discounts from a variety of vendors, museums or other attractions.

For Grade 12 students, it must be presented for the Grade 12 privilege of leaving and returning to campus.

Cafeteria

ICS promotes and encourages healthy eating patterns for the community to support health and overall wellbeing. The ICS Cafeteria webpage with menu choices can be found here. Students may bring snacks and/or lunch from home or purchase food items from the ICS food service facility. Microwave ovens and sandwich warmers are available for student use. The food service currently operates on a cash basis offering a variety of foods, including a hot lunch, sandwich bar, fresh fruit, snacks, as well as drinks such as fruit juice. Disposable plastic bottles will no longer be sold on campus. All students are encouraged to bring their own refillable beverage containers from home. These can also be purchased at the school store.

The ID cards are also to be used as prepaid debit cards, within ICS only, to purchase a hot lunch/buffet or snacks from the ICS cafeteria. The prepaid account uses an electronic debit system, which means each time a purchase is made it will reduce the prepaid account by the amount of the purchase. The student ID card has a unique barcode that is used to access the student’s ICS prepaid account by a simple swipe at the cafeteria cashier.

For assistance with your student’s prepaid account, you can visit the cashier’s office or contact us by email at prepaid.service@icsaddis.org. Cash is also accepted to purchase food at the ICS cafeteria.

STUDENT STORE

Most instructional materials are provided by the school without additional charge. Students are responsible to purchase their own consumable supplies such as notebooks, paper, dividers, pens, rulers, etc. Because good supplies can be difficult to find locally, an on-campus Student Store sells common items. The Student Store is open in the morning, at lunchtime and just after school. You may also access the Student Store online by clicking here.
