ISY Secondary Blog

August 16 Update

Christina Powers, Secondary School Principal

August 16, 2019

Dear Parents,

We are excited to have your children back on campus and to have had a great start to the school year. To help ensure that parents have up to date information related to secondary school, I will be sending, on Fridays, a weekly link to the secondary blog. On this blog, I will highlight important items that are taking place during the week. My goal will be to keep the blog short, but informative.

Paul Self (IB Teacher) – Mr. Self, unfortunately over the summer, suffered a stroke and is in the process of finishing up his rehabilitation schedule. We anticipate he will return to ISY in late October. In the meantime, ISY is lucky to have Dr. Swati Rai, a literature teacher, who is teaching his classes.

Student Dress code: Next week we will be reminding students of the ISY dress code. Shirts are to be full length, beer logos and/or insensitive slogans are not permitted. Shorts should be around 2-3 inches in length at a minimum. PE uniforms are required for PE classes.

School Store- The ISY store, which sales T-shirts and notebooks and other ISY items, is open at the following times:

7:45-8:15
11:30-12:30 
2:30-3:30 


Once again, I look forward to a great school year and seeing you all on campus soon.  Below are a few items for you to be aware of.
