🚨NEW SIGNUP PROCESS UPDATE🚨

This year, we’re making sign-ups clearer and more organised!
There are now two types of activities signup forms:

🟢 Seasonal ASAs – Fun activities that change each season, so you can try something new every season.

🟡 Year-Long ASAs – Activities that run all year long, like Business Club, Robotics, Earth Club, NHS, Athletic Council, etc.

If you joined a year-long ASA in Season 1, you’re already signed up — no need to register again.
If you’d like to join a year long ASA mid-year,  please use the Year-Long ASA Request Form. 

If you are apart of a year long ASA and no longer wish to participate,  please email Raina Smith (rsmith@isp.cz)

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is “Try it Out” Week?
A: A week to explore representative athletics before committing.

Q: Can I join late?
A: Yes — but you must get approval from the ASA leader/coach first, then email Raina Smith (rsmith@isp.cz) to confirm.

Q: Do I have to attend the Activities Fair?
A: No, but it’s the best way to learn about activities and ask questions.

Q: Can I join more than one activity?
A: Yes, if the times don’t conflict.

Q: What’s the difference between a Year-Long ASA and a Seasonal ASA?

A: Year-Long ASAs (such as MathClub, Robotics, Athletic Council, Business club, etc ) run through all three seasons.

• • Students who joined in Season 1 are automatically continued — no need to sign up again.

  • If you are new and wish to join mid-year, please email the ASA leader & Raina Smith for approval.

  • If you are currently part of a year-long ASA and wish to discontinue, please also email the ASA leader & Raina Smith to be removed.

Seasonal ASAs change each season and are open for new sign-ups through the Google Form.

• • Students are encouraged to try different activities each season.

Q: Are there extra fees?
A: Most are included in tuition; any extras will be listed (Mainly for Representative Activities/Athletics, e.g: MathCounts).  Check SCIS/CEESA/OtherTrips for more information.

Q: Where do I get updates?
A: Check this page — it’s always the most current.

Q: Where do I get my merch? Where do I buy it and pick it up?
A: Order via eShop, pick up at Main Reception. For exchanges/questions, visit our Activities office.

Q: Why can’t I sign up for ASAs? It’s not working.
A:  Make sure you’re signing up with your school email address — personal emails won’t work. Also, the student should be the one signing up (not the parent). If you’re joining a representative sport, then parents should also be involved so they know about the homestay commitment and which week your family is available to host.

Q: I am a new family.  How does my child get their ISP email and login details so we can sign up for ASAs?
A:  All new students are provided with an ISP email and login by the IT department. Accounts are created during their first days at school and usually take a few days to set up.

👉 If your child has not yet received their login information, please contact the IT Help Desk: helpdesk@isp.cz
