This is a wonderful opportunity for our students and we are excited to see that a number of them are already participating! We would like to encourage you to drop off your children at the designated starting points on Wednesdays, instead of driving them all the way to school. We appreciate the efforts made by the Traffic Committee, specifically Ludivine Mouton and Nelly Heidbrink! See the November bulletin for more information or contact them at .

Thank you to all parents for your support in helping us manage early dismissal on November 30th. An overwhelming number of you made special arrangements allowing many teachers to attend the Personalversammlung.
