Message from the Head of School – January 11, 2019

Welcome to Semester II of school year 18-19 at BIS. We welcome a few new families to our community, thank you to everyone for your help in making new families feel welcome. Students are back to their learning. Thank you as always for caring deeply about your child’s education.

Topic Group Announcement
Thank you to those who have expressed interest and who have sent in their CV and letter of interest, we really appreciate your collaborative spirit to continue to help BIS strive for excellence in all areas. We are still in need of a few more committed parents – thank you for considering.
We estimate the commitment for a Topic Group to be one meeting per month for approximately 90 minutes per meeting.

PTA Survey
If you have not filled out the PTA Survey regarding the BIS Fair, please take a moment to let us know your thoughts. The data will be shared next Wednesday morning.

Recruitment
Mr. Ferris, Mr. Eldred and I are in Bangkok at the Search Associates International Recruitment Fair. I am pleased to report we are just looking for a few teachers and that there continues to be great interest in working at the Bali Island School.

Pool Update
Argh!
The pumps did not run all of Tuesday evening setting us back so we are now hopeful of a Monday opening. Please know that we are doing everything we can to get a proper and final solution.
