Summer reading 

Looking for summer reading recommendations? Check out the HS Summer Reading Guide! Here you can find recommendations from students and teachers, new eBooks on Sora, and free audiobooks available all summer long. 

Masks optional outside

We’re continuing to monitor case counts in Chennai and among the AISC community. The numbers for both are low.  We’re also quite aware of the heat and humidity. And, we know that COVID-19 is very difficult to transmit with ample fresh air. In attempting to balance those factors with any external requirements, masks may again be removed while outdoors.  Please wear masks while in the entry/exit area of campus, and at all times while indoors.

Note from HS Library 

With IB, AP, and final exams approaching, many students are using the HS Library for quiet study. Please respect your classmates and take your socializing elsewhere. Students making too much noise will be asked to leave.
