AISL Commitments on Remote Learning

We are here to support you.
We will continue to support teachers as they grow in this model of teaching and learning.
We will continue to review the situation and learning consistently and adjust as we go along.
We will communicate every step of the way.

Virtually Connected

While our students and teachers are all over the world, we are still connected. Through our committment to excellence, our students are always connected both within and outside of the classroom. Students can be caught working on their subject work, dancing for PE, creating art projects for Earth Day, and hanging out in our virtual playground. Take a look and see some great outcomes from our remote learning program.
