CDE MSP TSP CDMSP TFLP e TASIS TODAY TASIS Summer Programs 2011 PB eTASIS TODAY Summer Programs 2011 1 An e-magazine for Alumni and Friends of The American School In Switzerland Welcome to the Summer Programs eTASIS Today! Every summer, hundreds of children come to Switzerland to learn, travel, meet new friends, and explore the Alps. Faculty and staff from around the world take a break from their academic year jobs and university courses to act as teachers, counselors, advisors, and dorm parents. The sun-drenched campus becomes a home-away-from-home for the people who make up the TASIS Summer Programs. Summer is a special time at TASIS. Academics are intensive, as students focus on core subjects from languages to the arts. The enviable locations of the TASIS campuses allow 6 students to explore beautiful, interesting, and historic places, giving hands-on experience in their target academic field. This summer edition of eTASIS Today is filled with images and stories from all of the TASIS Summer Programs based in Switzerland, and we hope it captures the spirit of these brief but dynamic weeks. Along with a round-up of the Summer Programs, we’ve included some campus news. We hope you enjoy this e-publication. This e-publication rests on our website, and its format allows us to send it directly to your email address. Some alumni and TASIS friends will not receive this in their inbox, however, since we are still missing the email addresses of many alumni.
