From the Secondary Principal’s Desk

Dear BAIS Community,

NICSSometimes community members ask me questions about NICS. Usually the conversation begins with, “What is NICS?” It stands for Network of International Christian Schools and has a system of 18 international school that use English as the language of instruction. In total there are over 4,700 students being served at NICS schools and the organization’s purpose is, “Reaching the world for Christ through international Christian education.” Some people ask me, “Why is BAIS part of NICS?” There are many reasons. Some of those reasons can be explained by examining my trip to the Administration and Leadership Conference at the NICS home office next week in Southaven, Mississippi.

The sessions with other principals who are doing great work in schools all over the world will provide me with great learning opportunities. We will be able to examine case studies, share experiences, and justify decisions made to improve student learning. There will be plenty of debating and discussion centered around research-based strategies that help students excel. Strategic and long term planning is vital to a school’s successful accomplishment of its mission. One of the sessions will be led by Mickey Bowden, the founder of the Lowrie Center for Christian School Education. This will be especially applicable as BAIS considers how best to move forward in school improvement, both in the academic arena and facilities.

On Saturday, February 18, Mr. Nielsen and I will spend time at the NICS job fair finding the perfect teachers to fill positions for the 17-18 school year. We will present to fair participants, share a short video that reflects the unique and special nature of BAIS, and spend hours interviewing teachers face-to-face and virtually.

Because BAIS uses MAP to measure student growth from fall to spring, I will attend a session that with further equip me with the skills and strategies to better use MAP data. With comprehensive data in a well-organized and user friendly interface, the school will be able to implement strategies and develop individualized professional development based on reliable data.

While away, I will surely miss BAIS. However, I know this conference and time away will benefit me professionally and the school. My departing flight will take me from Mississippi to Malang where I will join the Boys Basketball team at the IISSAC tournament. I am hopeful that the four explanations above answers, in part, the question, “Why is BAIS part of NICS?” Clearly, the partnership is mutually beneficial!

Mr. Jeremy Thomas
Secondary Principal
