Dear AIS Community,

We congratulate our student Julian Navarro for his outstanding participation in the AASCA Swimming Tournament 2022. Julian won 5 gold medals, broke several records and was crowned the fastest swimmer of the entire event. Congratulations!

5th and 11th graders successfully completed the FARO Mock Tests, results will be sent home in early May, along with teacher recommendations for strengthening certain areas.

Water Day – A Drop for Africa raised $705! We thank the 2nd and 5th grades for organizing this event, which raises awareness and contributes this money to provide clean water to regions that do not have access to it.

We will have games from many of our athletes next month: the U15 Men’s Basketball team starts the Youth Basketball of America
(YBOA) Tournament on Saturday-April 30, the U19 Men’s Basketball team has a game on Wednesday-May 18, the Women’s Volleybal team has a game on Thursday-May 19 and the Gymnastics team has a Festival on Saturday-May 21. We wish all our teams great success and invite families to support them. Go Falcons!
