We have some exciting news! Ali L. in 1st Grade is our first Cheetah this year to make our Impossible Shot at our monthly assembly!

🌟 How it Works:
Our Cheetahs are constantly spotted being Principled, Inquirers, Risk-Takers, Communicators, and more. When a staff member sees a student living out the IB Learner Profile, they earn an "I See IB" ticket.
Each month, we draw two names per grade level from those tickets to step up to the line.

Ali didn’t just show his IB attributes in the classroom—he showed incredible focus and bravery on the big court!

The beat continued today at our COE International Festival! We were thrilled to host Noah Mosgofian with Drum One Drum All for an incredible, high-energy session.
Our Cheetahs didn’t just listen—they became part of the music! Beyond creating their own rhythms, students went on a global journey learning about the history and origins of drums from Africa and beyond. It was loud, it was educational, and it was a total blast!
