A discussion on what our teens may encounter with drugs and alcohol. An expert from the Berliner Suchtpräventionstelle (Berlin Center for Addiction Prevention) will present in English and have a Q&A session in English and German. She will talk about:

● What drugs teens may encounter
● Talking to your teen about drugs/alcohol
● Ways for your teens to resist peer pressure
● What is the law? As a parent and/or party host, what is your responsibility and liability?

Please join us for this important topic and contact with any questions.

Dear JFKS Students, Parents, Teachers and Principals,

Even with a seemingly endless summer, fall is finally coming, which means also that our GARDEN DAY for the whole campus is fast approaching!

It will be October 13^th, beginning at 10 a.m.

Please bring children and family along – we need as many helping hands as possible!

Also, please bring your gardening tools and gloves with you. There will be Bratwurst on the grill, soft drinks and cake.

Let’s make it a fun day, let’s clean up the campus and enjoy the bright colors of autumn.

Looking forward to see you,
