Students’ Honor Code On my honor, I pledge my academic integrity, honesty, tolerance, and respect to the ISPS community, and I will encourage others to do the same.

ISPS WEEKLY NEWSLETTER Dear Parents and Students, A warm thank you to the many families who joined us last Saturday for the school Walk-a -thon that was held on Columbus Circle. All of the funds raised from the walkathon support the Cyril Ross Nursery and the Christ Child Convalescent Home. Your participation makes a difference! As we move ahead in implementing the IB Middle Years Program at ISPS, I would like to thank all members of our school and community. Implementing our vision to develop independent learners who strive for academic excellence, pursue their unique potential, and meet challenges with confidence and integrity as they prepare for global citizenship can only happen in a supportive context that values the educational attributes that are characteristic of the IB learner. In particular I have witnessed the balanced, reflective, and principled ways that our staff and community members address challenges and issues. I have also had the privilege of working with you in a community that is caring and which models and values strong communication, inquiry (using higher order thinking skills) and the acquisition of knowledge. plant. I will miss this very precious feature of our community when I leave you in June. Elementary students, parents, and teachers participated in student led conferences today. Students presented portfolios and discussed their learning goals. Teachers are always available to meet with parents by appointment. Grade 8 students return today from the Tobago field trip. The trip affords students the opportunity to study issues of sustainability through the examination of two reef systems. This issue is also explored through the lens of economics and industry within the context of agricultural industries on the island of Tobago. Reports from the field this morning indicate that everyone has enjoyed the experience. Students are expected to return to ISPS this afternoon on schedule. I keep any found items such as iPhones, laptops, and cameras under lock and key. If you are missing any items of value, please do telephone the school or drop by the Director’s office.

It not only taught us how the UN works or how to write resolutions but it also showed us that to experience something to the fullest extent possible - we have to get out of our comfort zone. MELISA YETKIN ” “ I had a fantastic experience with MUN. I believe I learnt a great deal about how actual meetings proceed in the UN, as countries attempt to create resolutions for real problems. It showed me the immense frustration you can get with other several strongheaded people who have contrasting ideas but I also experienced the satisfaction of passing a resolution to correct problems. ABRAHAM LEWIS ” “ With NHSMUN being my second conference, I was less nervous and more excited to participate in my committee and represent my country, Qatar. My committee, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization, debated the issue of poverty reduction in sub-Saharan Africa, a topic which I am extremely passionate about. Though my committee had about 100 delegates, I found the courage to get up and speak in front of everyone and discuss my ideas with other delegates, and eventually became a signatory for the resolution that was passed. I had a very intellectually stimulating experience, and would recommend that those who are interested in discussing and solving current world problems sign up to take part in MUN next year.
