All School Learning Dialogue - Supporting EAL Students (February 17- 8:45 am)

Join us Sabrina Kim, EAL Coordinator, and Dave Allen, Elementary School Associate Principal, for an all school parent coffee where we will take a look at the process of language learning, how we support EAL students at AISC, and how you can support your child through transitions from virtual to in person. We will focus on practical tips that promote social and academic language growth.

From the Counselors

 

International School Counselor week was this week. Here are a few things we, Elementary Counselors do:

  • teach students to be mindful and know their feelings and regulate them

  • manage transitions while entering and leaving school

  • help students learn how to make friends

  • connect families to school and community resources

  • talk with students when they want help solving problems

  • help all our students gain a sense of belonging

We love our AISC students and families! Thank you for all your care and support.
