From the desk of your team....
Hello!
Congratulations to all of us for surviving the first month of school and Chennai’s heat. Here’s to hoping for cooler temperatures sooner rather than later.
This week, parents of high school students had the opportunity to meet with Mr. John McCandless, the principal. He briefly spoke about the changes from last year. In particular, there are two high school counselors now compared to just one last year. Athletic Director Mr. Ron Thomson also explained how students can receive their “letters.” Lettering is used in the United States to honor students who successfully compete in a sport or event. The requirements are posted on the athletics website. It’s very exciting for the students, especially from the US. Ron is also working on varsity jackets. A significant time was spent on discussing “Discover India” formally known as “Week without Walls.” Parents had concerns about the recent flooding and safety. John was able to provide information assuring parents about the upcoming trips.
The next PTA meeting is on Tuesday, September 3. We are looking forward to seeing everyone there.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact any one of us from the executive committee.
Have a wonderful long weekend..
Movies
This week, we went and saw the movie Planes. The movie is created by Disney in the same vein of the movie Cars. A cropper plane being in the big leagues to be part of a race that goes around the world. The movie is about the cropper plane learning about himself. Planes is a wonderful and typical Disney movie that is made for the whole family. Apart from the kids, I enjoyed the movie. When the movie ended, I was disappointed. A good family movie for all to watch.
