EDITOR’S NOTE
After a month long trip to the US, I can honestly say that you make
your old school proud. It was heart warming to see how interested
you still are in your alma mater. It was so touching to see so many
of you coming up to me and thanking me for helping IC. Your love
for your school was amazing.
It was wonderful to see how you continue to be impressed with
IC and the education that it offers.The competition to enter IC is
high. The preschool alone reports a waiting list of hundreds. The
elementary, middle and secondary schools also report long waiting
lists. Everyone, it seems wants the best.
Yes, IC is doing well. Our education has never been better and we
are at the same – if not better – standards as international schools
across the world.
And now you understand why we have launched our Capital
Campaign. A state of the art education needs a state of art
campus.
And this is why we have been travelling so much and meeting so
many alumni and IC friends.
The good news is that pledges are coming in. Donations – some of
the substantial – are arriving. You have seen our needs and believe
in us. For that, we thank you.
Our fund raising journey has just begun and we ask all of you to
continue to believe in IC and spread the word among the alumni
and friends about the Capital Campaign.
May we all meet again very soon,
Best wishes,
Moufid Beydoun ‘64
