We are delighted you have chosen Corrales International School for your child/children.
CIS is a unique school that offers a great educational experience, while striving to create a strong sense of community and cooperation. Our amazing teachers, dedicated staff and involved parents all work together to create a caring environment that allows our children to flourish.
Each family brings unique abilities, strengths and interests to our school community. Teachers, staff and families have come together to support the International School mission. The support we receive from each of you is invaluable. Strong parent involvement, school-to-home communications, and support for our core values create a powerful partnership at the CIS. We invite each of you to become involved through our active PTA, as classroom volunteers, and through our many events held throughout the year. Events such as the Jog-a-thon, International Day and our Silent Auction and Dinner bring our community together both for fun and in support of school priorities.
If you are interested in becoming involved now, our School Advisory Committee (SAC) is recruiting volunteer representatives for the following grade levels: Kindergarten, 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 7th. The SAC collaborates with the head administrator on many aspects of the school's management and processes. This school year they were integral in designing the drop/pick up area and in advising the Governing Council in the uniform policy. Please contact Tara Armijo-Prewitt at tprewitt@gmail.com or 304.0672 if you are interested.
We are excited that many new families have chosen CIS and will be joining us for the 2010 - 2011 school year. We look forward to all of the new faces, energies and inputs to help make this year truly remarkable!
