Dear Students and Parents,

Welcome to the 2010-2011 school year!

On behalf of high school, we invite you to become a part of the exciting things happening at The American Community School at Beirut (ACS).  As a student, parent, alumni, or community member you play an important role in the past, present, and future of ACS.  Let us always be conscious of where we have been, where we are now, and all of the great things that are yet to come.  Pride and tradition are two important elements in any school but ACS is not restricted to just these.  ACS is a dynamic place where creativity and innovation is encouraged and welcomed!

Our first and foremost goal is to help your child start his or her “new beginning” towards a successful high school year.  In order to help accomplish this goal, we will be working on providing a rigorous and relevant curriculum in a nurturing environment.  We ask that you help us help your children by ensuring that they attend regularly and are prepared to learn.

I expect that all faculty and students at ACS will work together to help each other reach their fullest potential.  We are all part of the ACS community, and everyone will be treated with dignity and respect.  We will encourage any behavior or action that helps an individual grow and mature.  Faculty, along with parents, I trust, will all keep students focused on our school guidelines, help guide them as they set their goals, and motivate them as they strive to realize their dreams.

I am honored to serve as the high school principal at ACS and I look forward to a wonderful school year. If I can be of assistance to you, feel free to contact me.

Sincerely,

Fabio Corvaglia

High School Principal
