Middle School Book Club
Hello MS Parents! I'll soon be starting the first MS parent book group, with the hopes that there will be more to come next year and maybe even one more later this year. With that in mind, I'd like to get some feedback from you on book choice and meeting format/time. Please take a moment to complete this short survey, even if you think you may not be able to be a part of this first book group. Thanks! Jen Gold, MS Counselor

The High School is excited about creating various fun activity booths for elementary and middle school students on Saturday, February 27, from 12-4 on the Main Field. The booths will offer a range of activities: T-Shirt decorating, Cookie Decorating, Pin the Tail on the Raptor, Splash, Can Knock Down, Ring Toss, Nail Art, an Obstacle course, Sponge throw, Floor Board, Velcro Catch Ball, and a Bouncy Castle.
The ticket price for the event is 300 rupees, which includes food, but some activities will have an additional cost. There is also a raffle to play. Tickets for the raffle are separate.
This is a way that the high school students can create a memorable experience for the elementary and middle school students and contribute to the AISC community. High school clubs also use the money collected to fund their activities.
We hope you and your family join in on the fun on February 27!
Have a good weekend.
