Yours Sincerely, Atef Fadel Principal LETTER FROM THE ACADEMIC DIRECTOR Dear Parents, Students and Staff To ensure that we provide the best education we can, we need to ensure that the staff and students are provided with the best conditions and resources that can be provided. The task of the teachers is to apply the shared v alues and beliefs of the school‟s community. The future holds an exciting challenge for our students because the learning environment we establish will play a vital role to prove that our students are equipped with the personal values and learning skills that they may need to be lifelong learners. Increasingly, our school administration is working hard to define what is important for our school to achieve in order to maintain more success. Our Strategic Plan is our attempt to prove that we are continually d oing our best to improve our teaching and learning environment. It really honors me to assure students‟ parents that our school is one of the best schools that pay much interest to quality learning and teaching methods. All teachers work hard so as to provide their students with knowledge and information which enable them to be good students. Our image of a successful future learner The image we share of a successful future learner is a student with a strong sense of values and personal identity confident to take the risks necessary to continue learning in what will be challenging and unpredictable future. We want our students to be equipped not only with the „foundation skills‟ of literacy , but also with a range of future oriented attributes including confidence with information technology. Most importantly, we want our students to be open to new ideas, able to realize their own dreams, talents, and-personal-visions. The learning experiences the school provides need to ensure students keep this image in mi nd. We believe that helping students realize this faith in their own ability will be the best guarantee for them to achieve future success. Thanking you Mr. Mahmoud
