Middle School (MYP 1-4) Welcome Information
Dear ISH Middle School Parents and Students,
Welcome! We look forward to being a part of your child's educational journey. At ISH middle school, we acknowledge that the middle years are some of the most challenging years in a young person's life. Our goal is to wrap around our students with inspirational teaching, social emotional learning and partnership with you, their parents. This approach is to ensure that our students emerge with a deep sense of purpose, direction and hope for a future that they can take part in shaping.
The aim of the ISH Family Guide is to give you all of the important information about ISH. Reading the family guide is essential to understanding and knowing the different procedures and policies at ISH. We are sure you have lots of questions, and we will strive to answer them all in due course. To assist you with some of these, we have created several documents for you to look through.
To keep you regularly informed, we send out an ISH family newsletter every Friday, which provides key updates as well as shares activities driven by parents, teachers and students to highlight our vibrant and lively learning community.
See you soon!
