Parents: Would You Like to Be More Involved at AISC? We Need Your Expertise in 2017-2018!
As
we look ahead to the 2017-2018 school year, we are seeing a number of areas for
which we need some specific expertise, and we are hopeful that our parents can
helps us. For starters, here are three:
Parents: Would You Like to Be More Involved at AISC? We Need Your Expertise in 2017-2018!
One
question we hear from parents fairly consistently is, “How can we help?” We
have answer for that question for next year already!
1. Our iLab garden team
successfully prototyped some raised bed gardens this year that we want students
and teachers to use to connect to specific learning in classrooms. We need
knowledgeable and passionate gardeners to assist our teachers. Do you have a
passion and know-how for gardening? Interested in helping us support teachers
and their work? Share your expertise with us! Please email Andrew Hoover (headofschool@aischennai.org) if you are interested
in this opportunity.
2. Over the summer, we are
installing an instructional kitchen in the ES. We need parents who know their
way around a kitchen and love to be creative. Do you have passion and know-how
in the area of cooking? Interested in helping us support student learning?
Share your expertise with us! Please email or Keryn Dowling (dkeryn@aischennai.org) if you would like to
be involved with the teaching kitchen.
3.
We are looking for an Alumni Coordinator who would work with our
Director of Advancement to coordinate and organize the alumni group. This is a
great opportunity for a young alumni student, alumni faculty member or alumni
parent. Please contact Kirsten Welbes (wkirsten@aischennai.org) if you'd like to be
work with the alumni
network.
Thank you to everyone who has expressed interest in joining Girl Scouts at AISC in the fall. We have a very eager group of 4th and 5th grade girls who want to participate, but they are in need of a leader. If you are interested in helping to lead these girls, please email Erin Weller at peweller@gmail.com.
Do you enjoy planning events?
Do you have a knack for networking and making new contacts in Chennai?
Is planning a social outing your thing?
If so, we could use you.
We are looking to build our committees and are searching for people that want to join us. If you have an interest in helping us form a sponsorship committee, like planning events and want to be on the Diwali Mela committee, or just want to lead a tour in Chennai, email the PCA at pca@aischennai.org.
We are here to help. If you have a question that needs answered or are looking for more information, here is how to reach your PCA Executive Committee Members...
