Good Afternoon

We are thrilled to congratulate our SAISA athletes and coaches on their achievements this past weekend.  Our Girls Volleyball team in Sri Lanka, our Swim team in Kathmandu, and our Boys Volleyball team here in Amman all competed with a ton of heart.  Our students represented our schools, their families, and themselves in a way that leaves us in awe.

A special thank you to Mr. Chip and Ms. Rawand in the Activities Office for their incredible effort in organizing the Boys Volleyball tournament here at ACS. Hosting a tournament of this scale involves many hands, and we are grateful for the dedication of our Maintenance, Transportation, and Security teams, as well as the Business Office, PTG Booster Club, and our wonderful student and staff volunteers.

These events are more than competitions; they provide invaluable experiences for our students and showcase the strength and warmth of our school community to visiting schools across the region. We are proud of our team and grateful to all who made this event a memorable success!

Grades 9-11 PSAT Testing -  We want to express our gratitude for your support and flexibility in helping to prepare our students for this year's PSAT. Your encouragement and help will no doubt play a significant role in their success. We are fortunate to have such committed parents on our team.

NGO Fair - The NGO Fair is an annual event dedicated to fostering connections and empowering students to embark on their Service Learning journeys. This past Tuesday we brought together a diverse range of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and community partners from various fields, providing students with the unique opportunity to explore and engage with causes that resonate with their passions and values. It is exciting to see the connections students are starting to make with what they are learning in school and how it can work as a positive for the community.

HS Assessment Week - We wanted to inform you about some changes regarding the end-of-semester school week at the high school based on valuable feedback from both our students and teachers.

This year, the high school will be implementing an assessment week during the final week of classes. During this time, students will have school from 8:00 AM to 11:30 AM (9:00 AM to 12:30 PM on Tuesday). The focus will primarily be on end-of-unit assessments for two classes each day.

We believe this system provides a more focused and productive environment for our students as they wrap up the academic semester.

HS Graduation Reminder - We are pleased to inform you that initial contact has been made with officials in Jerash regarding our graduation ceremony. We have requested that the ceremony take place on Wednesday, May 28, in line with past graduations. However, please be aware that we typically receive official confirmation in February or March.

We understand the importance of making travel arrangements for family and guests, and we appreciate your patience with this process. The date remains tentative until confirmation, and we will share updates as soon as they become available. Thank you for your understanding and support.
