High School

 

Welcome to the High School

 

It is with great excitement that we enter the 2010-11 school year!  We would like to offer a warm welcome to the entire high school community of Cairo American College and a special greeting to the senior class of 2011 as they work to complete their high school careers.  Also, moving up from the middle school, we would like to welcome our 132 new ninth graders, the class of 2014, as they embark on their stimulating ventures in the high school.  Also, a very special welcome goes out to the more than eighty students who will be new to the high school.

In addition to our new students, we are also pleased to welcome eight new high school faculty members to our high school community.  Our new faculty brings a wealth of both international and stateside experience to CAC, and we look forward to their many contributions they will make in the high school.  

Throughout this year, we will be emphasizing each student’s role as a valued global citizen, our need to maintain a sustainable environment and the importance of upholding the school’s values of respect, responsibility and integrity.  By emphasizing these core values, we hope to promote not only academic excellence and student performance, but also instill in students the value of service to others and global-mindedness.

To build on our partnership, we encourage you to be an active participant in your son or daughter’s education.  Throughout the year, maintain frequent contact with your child’s teachers and ensure that he or she comes to school prepared and on time each day. When questions or problems arise, never hesitate to call, drop by, or attend one or more of the high school community forums. Also, support your child by participating in our parent-teacher conferences, and by keeping up-to-date on important events by reading the High School Morning Announcements, which are emailed daily to parents, and the weekly on-line Highro-Glyphics, which is emailed to parents each Thursday. 

We look forward to seeing each of you over the course of this upcoming school year.  At any time, feel free to stop by, to ask questions, or to share your comments or concerns.  Your feedback is vital as we continue to make academic excellence at CAC our first priority.
