PTO Report

The 2019-2020 academic year was a very challenging year for all of us! As PTO we worked hard from the start of the school year to engage the AISB community, raise funds and support our children and the school community in many different ways; before and, of course, also after the COVID crisis hit Romania and AISB. I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your support during this exceptional school year.

We’ve managed to organize a lot of events and sponsor quite a number of initiatives. From Newcomer Coffees to Links Drinks, from Halloween Parties to the amazing Zombie Run, from Winter Holiday celebrations to Friendship Week, from Uniform & Book Sales to Sharing Cooking skills and recipes online, from sponsoring small projects to supporting big events like the Angst movie or Freedom from Drug and Chemical Dependency workshop, from Fruits for the Secondary students to Cooking workshops for the parents, from tours around Bucharest to Workshops. We even sent Vampy around the globe!

The main community highlight this school year was the 3-day Harvest Festival in November. Unfortunately two big events, our traditional annual Gala in April and the beloved International Festival in May, had to be cancelled due to Covid-19 restrictions. With the help of our sponsors, country reps and a group of very dedicated parents, we still managed to organize the Auction part of the Gala as a very successful online event, thus being able to sponsor 3 scholarships for very talented Romanian students.

We’d like to thank all of YOU for your continued support and contribution during the 2019/2020 school year! It’s been a very active year with lots of events, projects and happenings at school as well as online. We could not have done it without you! Go Vampires!

Thanks so much, Multumim frumos!
