The HS Boys and Girls Soccer Teams participated in the Pearl River Conference Tournament in Dongguan. The girls came in 2nd and won the sportsmanship award. The sportsmanship award highlights ISNS girls approach to the game. It's not just about winning, but winning with grace and humility

I attended a CanGlory ChatGPT workshop at the Canadian International School of Beijing - our sister school. During this workshop, we discussed the use of AI in the classroom. It was an opportunity for us to reflect on how the use of AI can be incorporated into teaching and learning. While AI is not new, the rise of ChatGPT has made the public more aware of the development of AI. There are pushbacks from some quarters, and we need to maximize its potential while minimizing its downsides.
