Return of IT Loaners and Peripherals

Hi everyone,

As we head into the Winter Holiday, the IT department is starting our inventory and maintenance process. If you’ve borrowed any devices—laptops, iPads, charging cables, bricks, or anything else from us—please make sure to return them as soon as possible this week, at the latest by Thursday, December 18th 2025. Please return your items at the IT support window located on the first floor of the HUB.

Also, just a heads-up: We are not allowing checkouts this week, as we’ll be focused entirely on collecting and preparing everything for winter holiday inventory.

Thanks for your help in keeping things organized and ready for the second semester!

If you have any questions please reach out.

Wishing you all a relaxing, fun, and well-deserved winter break. See you in 2026, recharged and ready to go!

Through Our Lens

Do we often socialize with people from different places/backgrounds as us? Why do some of us feel inclined to stick with the people who have the same mother tongue?  What affects where we sit in the cafeteria?

This year, videographers from the Video Review team are partaking in Through Our Lens, a student-led documentary project with 6 schools participating worldwide. The topic of our segment is “Social divisions based on nationality/ethnicity in an international community.”

WE WANT TO HEAR YOUR VOICE!

With this project, we aim to discuss the social rifts based on culture, nationality, and/or ethnicity in our community. If you feel that you have had an experience that aligns to our topic, have something to contribute to the discussion, or have a suggestion regarding how we can address these rifts as a community, we would be glad to interview you.

We are open to interviewing students from G6-12 (below G6 may be considered case-by-case) and teachers from all across campus.

Through Our Lens Interview Application – Fill out form

Interviews will be held from December 9-11 th. Please fill out this form as soon as possible.
