Wishing You a Restful Spring Break

Weekly Update from the Director - April 11, 2025
Liebe Schulgemeinschaft,
As we approach the well-deserved Spring Break, I want to take a moment to extend my heartfelt wishes to all of our students, families, faculty, and staff. This time of year offers a welcome opportunity to pause, recharge, and enjoy time with loved ones. 
 
Whether your plans include traveling near or far—perhaps even to one of the beautiful DACH countries—or simply staying close to home, I hope this break brings you peace, joy, and rejuvenation. May your journeys be safe, your experiences enriching, and your time restful.
 
Thank you for all you do to make our school community such a vibrant and supportive place. We look forward to welcoming everyone back with renewed energy as we enter the final stretch of the school year. Please note that we are planning several events over the course of the next five weeks, culminating in our GISC Gala on May 17 – A Night Under the Desert Stars – a great night to celebrate our GISC community.
 
Wishing you a wonderful and restorative Spring Break!
 
Mit herzlichen Grüßen,
 
Ben Hebebrand
