A warm welcome from all of us at Shoreless Lake School!

It is with so much pride and joy that we share with you that one of our alumni and current teacher of our school, Carlos Julio Martínez, has had a book he wrote published by Rhemata Publishing Company.

Carlos Julio graduated from Shoreless Lake School on 2013, and studied Classical Philology at the University of Murcia, finishing his studies there in 2017.

Hechos de Jantipa y Polixena is the name of the book; it is the first translation made to the Spanish language of one of the very little-known apocryphal gospels “Vida y conducta de las santas mujeres Jantipa, Polixena y Rebeca”.

Here are some links that give you more information.

Congratulations Carlos Julio!!!

Gabriel Ambrosini and Joseph Thomas Kotch graduated from our school in June 2020.

Gabriel Ambrosini joined Shoreless Lake School (SLS) in 2013 as a 5th grader. He has graduated from High School after completing nine Advanced Placement (AP) courses.

High school students around the world take AP courses and exams to challenge themselves, explore their interests, and earn college credit and placement. AP can give students a head start in High School, a taste of college-level work while developing the academic skills they’ll need for college success. They might even discover their career path. AP can give students an edge in College. AP Exam scores can earn students college credit before they set foot on campus—and let them skip introductory college courses (https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/).

Gabriel obtained the following AP scores:

The AP score is reported on a 5-point scale as follows:

5 = extremely well qualified

4 = well qualified

3 = qualified

2 = possibly qualified

1 = no recommendation

Gabriel has been awarded with the AP Scholar with Distinction and AP International Diploma, has been recognized as a National Hispanic Recognition Program Scholar for his outstanding PSAT score, and has earned a perfect score in the SAT Latin Exam and an SAT combined score of 1370 (620 English section and 750 in Math section).

Joseph Thomas Kotch joined SLS in 2010-11, as a 3rd grader. He has graduated from SLS after completing seven AP courses and getting the following scores in his AP exams:

Joseph has been awarded with the AP Scholar with Distinction and AP International Diploma.

We are proud of Gabriel and Joseph, who truly meet the expectations for a graduate of Shoreless Lake School.

One of the most outstanding of Shakespeare’s historical dramas has arrived to Shoreless Lake.

Treason, lies, conspiracies, murder and much more by the hand of the direction of Ms. Carles and the amazing performance of her students from 9th and 10th grade.

Congratulation to Ms. Carles and her students for this wonderful representation!!

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.
