We truly hope you will be able to join us as a family for this wonderful event. Thank you from the High School Student Council.

Attention All Student Photographers!

We invite all elementary photographers to participate in the first annual AISC Incredible India Photo Gallery.  During India Week in February, we will be displaying ES students' photos of India in the FAC gallery.  
Here is how to join the fun:

* Each ES student may submit one photo, taken in India, no larger than 5x7 size.  Photos must be taken by the student.
* Photos may be submitted to the main office (near Ms. Sonia's desk) beginning January 20th.
* Photos should show something incredible about India :)
* Photos should be labeled with student's name and homeroom on the back. The photos may also be given a title.

All photos will be displayed in Fine Arts Center during India Week.  We look forward to seeing our amazing ES photographers' work displayed for all to admire.  So get out your camera and start taking pictures!
If you have questions, please contact Ms. Megan at mmegan@aisch.org

Have a wonderful holiday. I will see you in January.
