The school was purchased by ISS (Cayman) Ltd. in 2002 and the name of the school changed to Cayman International School (CIS) in 2003. The Board of Directors hires a Director to oversee the day-to-day running of the school, create, approve and maintain policy and to see that the school carries out its stated mission and objectives. CIS is a private, college preparatory, non- sectarian, co-educational school for students from two years old through Grade 12. It was es- tablished to provide an American/International educational program for the dependents of the multi-national professionals living in Cayman. Accreditation The Middles States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA), an American accrediting agency, accredits CIS through Grade 12. An IB World School, CIS is authorized to present the Diploma Programme of the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO). CIS is registered with the Cayman Islands Ministry of Education, who approves the licenses for schools on the island. CIS works with the Cayman Islands Education Standards and Assessment Unit (ESAU), the Cayman Islands Early Childhood Unit, MSA, and the IBO to maintain high qual- ity, challenging programs for its students. CIS is an invitational member of the Association of American Schools of Central America, Columbia, Caribbean, and Mexico. General Overview The Elementary School at CIS encompasses Kindergarten through Grade 5. The students in these grades are grouped together for academic and social purposes. The goal of the CIS ele- mentary program is to provide students with a sound foundation for future learning. The pro- gram focuses on the child as an active learner, with the curriculum designed to cover all the ba- sic skills, as well as to emphasize critical thinking. The ultimate goal of the program is to pre- pare students to be responsible, productive citizens in a rapidly changing world. Teachers work collaboratively to provide a smooth transition process from the Early Childhood Program to Kindergarten, from one elementary grade level to the next, and from Grade 5 to Middle School. The homeroom teacher is the key contact for parents and thus provides a means of communication between the home and the school. 6 Cayman International School Elementary School Handbook 2009/10 School Hours The CIS Office is open for business from 7:45 a.m. through 4:30 p.m. daily, Monday through Friday, during the regular school year. PTA CIS has an active PTA. According to established bylaws, its purpose is: “The relationships within the CIS community, which includes students, teachers, staff, adminis- trators, and parents, are a vital influence on the success of our children’s future. Therefore, our purpose is to foster a sense of support, pride, and enthusiasm for our school. Through fund- raising and family activities, we will promote positive school/community relationships that en- hance our children’s educational environment.” School Address, Phone, Fax, E-mail, and Website Address: 95 Minerva Drive, PO Box 31364, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands KY1-1206 Phone: 345-945-4664 Fax: 345-945-4650 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.caymaninternationalschool.org CIS students held a mini Science Fair in May 2009. 7 Cayman International School Elementary School Handbook 2009/10 School Programs After School Activities Guidance and Counseling In addition to the regular daily class sched- The CIS counselor will work with classroom ule, CIS offers an After School Activities teachers in their work as mentors to students.

  • Abstract the Epic of 1804: Based Upon And
    ABSTRACT THE EPIC OF 1804: BASED UPON AND INCORPORATING AN ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF MAURICE A. SIXTO’S J’AI VENGE LA RACE Myriam Souffrant, M.A. Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures Northern Illinois University, 2017 Matthew Smith, Director This thesis is a play written in English based upon the French audio recording entitled J’ai vengé la race by Maurice A. Sixto, famed Haitian story teller, comedian, diplomat and language professor (1919-1984). Mr. Sixto is regarded in Haitian literature as an oratory genius for his uncanny ability to analyze every segment of Haitian society using a rich and prolific narrative. With humor, wisdom, and a deft understanding of Haitian societal norms, he used his iconic voice to create authentic characters that have become part of the Haitian cultural fabric. His stories exposed the ills plaguing 20th century Haitian society; everything from the psychological remnants of slavery, to class differentiation and discrimination and beyond. As it is written, the play is in keeping with the Haitian literary tradition of a narrative within a narrative style of storytelling that Sixto uses in J’ai vengé la race. The play also does not support a fixed chronological canon, leaving its conclusion without closure and open to speculation. Thematically, the play is polymorphous, its themes ranging from the supernatural, to historical criticism, to personal testimony, to mysticism, to sex.

  • City Beautiful, Hull-House, and the Emergence of American Internationalism, 1890-1920
    When Europe Re-Built the Neighbourhood: City Beautiful, Hull-House, and the Emergence of American Internationalism, 1890-1920 by Maureen A. Mahoney A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Maureen A. Mahoney ABSTRACT Alice Hamilton, Grace Abbott, and Frederic C. Howe were members of a well-educated, white middle-class that burgeoned around the turn-of-the-century in the United States, and they embraced “Progressivism” and pacifism. In the flow of people, ideas, and culture that criss- crossed the North Atlantic, creating the intricate networks that formed an “international consciousness,” Hamilton, Abbott, and Howe were also deeply involved. In Chicago and Cleveland, however, their encounters with European culture were informed by shifting conventions of gender. At Hull-House in Chicago, Hamilton and Abbott observed the social transformations induced by mass immigration, and were forced to admit their education was not directly relevant. Drawing upon pragmatism and feminism, they learned to emphasize the subjectivity of experience, to view culture as a cooperative balance of diverse values, and to conceive of identity and knowledge as products of social and historic circumstances rather than innate racial or ethnic categories. By using these principles, they came to perceive American and European domestic spaces as two parts of an inclusive community. In Cleveland, corruption and chaotic growth convinced Howe that reform must be initiated by “public-spirited” men who privileged collective well-being, were familiar with “civilized” European cities, and experimented with reform.
