Dear Secondary School families,
We’ve had a busy few weeks - with Week Without Walls trips for Upper Secondary School students, MAP Fall 2025 testing for Lower Secondary School students, as well as the first series of Houses Competitions (sports activities). Our Fall SuperNOVA season is also in full swing.
We’ve also had great Wednesday PLCs (Professional Learning Community) - with the most recent ones focused on ATL (Approaches to Teaching and Learning) Skills, within the MYP team; and an upcoming one on TOK (Theory of Knowledge) Connections, within the DP team, and Community Engagement, within the MYP team. Our communications team has shared a few posts with these learning communities’ workshops - which we hope give you a glimpse into teacher planning and professional development. We are grateful for the time we have on Wednesdays, to come together as a team of teachers and further refine our teaching practices.
Please take a moment to review key upcoming events below for the period prior to Fall Break:
