April 9, 2018


Dear Parents,

This week will be quick as we only have three school days before the water festival. I hope you all have a restful holiday. 

Just a few things as we begin our holiday.
  • Theft and lost items continue to be an issue on the ISY campus. ISY students have been encouraged to lock up their items, but students continue to leave them in open locations. Leaving phones, wallets or computers in the locker room unattended and not secure is unwise. When this happens, items are more likely to go missing. Please encourage your child to lock up their items especially when using the locker rooms. 
  •  Please Update Your Contact Information by following the link sent to you on March 30, 2018. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Anshu Verma at averma@isyedu.org
  • Farewell assembly to our Grade 12 students: On Wednesday April 11, 2018 at 1:35 PM the high school students and faculty will be sending off our grade 12 students, as Wednesday is their last official day where they must attend school. We wish our grade 12 students the best for their upcoming IB exams. 
  • Thingyan Celebration at School On Wednesday, April 11, 2018: ISY students will have a special celebration of Thingyan with a chance to participate in getting each other wet. We will provide small pails for collecting the water to throw. You may want to prepare your child for this day by having them dress in appropriate clothes (clothes that can get wet – t-shirt and shorts – No bathing suits allowed). Additionally, it would be important to have a towel upon pick up so you can protect your car seats. Students who do not want to participate in the throwing of water can opt out of the experience. Water throwing will begin at 2:15 PM.

  • Please note: water cannons, pistols, or any other water squirting devices are not allowed.

  • EARTH and SPIRIT WEEK - The week of April 23-27, the ISY will have earth and spirit week. Th ISY community will participate Elementary, Middle and High schools. Each day will have a theme that will bring attention to a different environmental issue. Students are asked to wear a different color outfit to participate in the awareness of these global issues. 

      • Monday, 4/23 - WHITE color - to bring awareness to plastic pollution 
      • Tuesday, 4/24 - YELLOW color - to bring awareness to how much energy we consume 
      • Wednesday, 4/25 - BLUE color - to bring awareness to the water
      • Thursday, 4/26 - GREEN color - to bring awareness to the trees and what they do for us
      • Friday, 4/27 - RED color - to bring awareness to all environmental issues
