January is Science Month at ISD!
The BioBus will be visiting ISD January 6-8. The BioBus is a high-tech science lab on wheels! With the research-grade
equipment aboard the bus, students explore the world around them and make their own discoveries with the guidance of professional scientists. Each class will have
the opportunity to visit the BioBus.
This enrichment program has been paid for and sponsored by ISD PTA. Thank you for your membership support.

MEDIA CENTER READING CHALLENGE 2014
|
In celebration of the New Year, ISD students will be participating in our Annual Media Center Reading Challenge! The school goal is to read 2014 books in the month of January and if students reach or exceed that goal they will earn a school-wide Dance Party in the gym at the end of the challenge!
After the vacation, your child will bring home a special bookmarker on which they should record the title of each book they have read. As they complete each bookmarker, they should return it to the basket in the Media Center or to their classroom teacher.
Students are allowed to record the titles of books at their own reading level (or within a close range of their level) or books above their own level that parents or older relatives read to them. They may not include books that are well below their reading level that they read to younger siblings or friends.
We know the students are looking forward to this annual ISD tradition and we can't wait to begin!

The dental health program will begin on January 6. This program is run by the Town of Greenwich and includes both an educational portion as well as a dental screening for all the students at The International School at Dundee. This program is beneficial in continuing to maintain the health and well being of the students.
Thank you for promoting good dental health. Parents can also help by providing good nutritious snacks and lunches for their children. It has to be a team effort from us all to combat decay and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
