| Saying Goodbye to our School Secretary | We are sad to announce that Leah, our wonderful school secretary, is leaving FASRI at the end of the school year. She has been an indispensable addition to our team and a welcoming presence for our parents for six years, and we wish her the best of luck in the future! We will miss her greatly.
As a result, we are now recruiting a francophone secretary/receptionist with some bookkeeping skills, if possible. If you or someone you know would be interested, please send a CV and references to headofschool@fasri.org. |
| Grandparents' Day Volunteers Needed | Grandparents' Day is just around the corner: Friday, April 27. A few parent volunteers are needed to help the day run smoothly. If you are interested, please contact Raissa Mensah at rmensah@fasri.org.
