Saudi National Day celebrations were in full swing last week. It was a delight to see everyone take part in the activities prepared by our teachers, staff and students. Thank you to all who helped make this day fun and memorable. Here is a recap of all the events from across the District.

I’d like to wish you and your families Happy Saudi National Day. Please be reminded that schools will be closed on Wednesday and Thursday, September 21 and 22. We will resume classes on Sunday, September 25th. Enjoy the long weekend!

At ISG our students’ safety is a priority. We’ve recently completed our annual update of the Child Protection Handbook, which describes philosophies, policies, standards, guidelines and procedures to protect children from both intentional and unintentional harm. We also want you to know that all our staff at ISG undergo annual safeguarding training and refreshers, to stay current with child protection and safety regulations.

As a parent and educator, I can tell you there is nothing more delightful than to see our students walking in our school halls. We took some time to ask our students across the District about their hopes for the new school year.

It has been a wonderful first week at ISG. Everyone has settled into their classes and routines as they prepare for the year of learning ahead. This year 574 new students and 48 new teachers and staff joined our community. Welcome to ISG!

Welcome back to ISG! I hope you all had an enjoyable summer break with your families. We are only a few days away from starting the school 2022-2023 and I’m sure you and your children are just as excited as I am.

We are very excited to invite our entire ISG community to an Open House at our new ASD and BSD campus located in Aziziyah, Khobar. Please join us on August 27, 2022, from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm to explore our facilities.

We are now fast approaching the start of the 2022-2023 school year and I am pleased to confirm that our teams at ASD and BSD have been busy over the summer planning more Open House events for the wider ISG community.

This week, we are pleased to share with you some operational updates and improvements taking place at our campuses. While our students are away this summer, our teams have been busy preparing all of our schools in readiness for their return.
