My office in the Elementary & Middle School Building is on the 2nd floor at the bottom of a flight of stairs. Yesterday, a little boy who was passing by paused in the doorway, walked shyly into my office, and confided in me that he wasn’t feeling too well because he’d lost his water bottle around two weeks ago now.

One of the things I’ve noticed in my 16 months in this city is that when New Yorkers eat out in restaurants, they have the excellent habit of striking up a conversation with the people at the table beside them. At least that is how, on a fairly regular basis, my wife Andria and I surreptitiously get to know and share delicious moments with complete strangers. What always surprises me is their reaction when I tell them what I do for a living (I can’t help myself).

To everyone who was able to attend last night’s “Light through language” School Gala, thank you for making it another wonderful celebration. And to those who could not join us, we have a big surprise that we would like to share!

Tout au long de l’année scolaire 2017-18, les élèves de The École se sont investis dans un projet artistique de grande envergure.

Last Friday evening, the École community had the pleasure of hearing a live concert by French band, Les Trois Mousquetons.
