Last November, one of our faculty members, Mr. Iain Clark, our math teacher, was part of an MSA Accreditation team that went to evaluate the ES International School of Barcelona.

It was a wonderful and very enriching experience for Mr. Clark.

He was able to meet a very good friend of ours, Dr. Rufo, who headed the last Accreditation we went through at Shoreless Lake.

After spending some days busy with this process in Barcelona, Mr. Clark returned with a new perspective of the Accreditation process. It was an amazing opportunity for him and he was able to take full advantage of it.

Some weeks ago two of our faculty members, Ms. Francisca and Ms. Nicole, had a wonderful experience visiting the American School of Madrid.

This school kindly opened its doors to us, where our teachers were able to watch and learn many things.

All in all it was an exceptional experience.

We would like to thank Mr. Ben Weinberg (Headmaster) and Mr. Mike Nugent (Middle School Director) and all the faculty members that so warmly received us and let us enjoy their lessons.

We have the pleasure to invite you to our first piano recital at our school.

Ms. Nicole and her 6^th grade students put on a wonderful performance.

Now, please sit comfortably and listen to our little pianists. Enjoy!!
