First and foremost, I want to express my deepest gratitude to our caring and dedicated faculty and staff. Your unwavering dedication, passion for education, and commitment to nurturing our students have been the cornerstone of our school’s success. Each day, you bring creativity, expertise, and care into our classrooms, shaping the minds and futures of our students in ways that transcend borders and cultures.
To our students, you are the heartbeat of our school. Your curiosity, resilience, and diverse perspectives enrich our community beyond measure. It has been an honor to witness your growth, celebrate your achievements, and support you on your educational journey.
To the parents and guardians, thank you for entrusting us with the education and development of your children. Your partnership, support, and involvement in our school community have been invaluable. Together, we have created a nurturing environment where every child can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. A special thanks is extended to the CISB parent committee for their unwavering support and efforts on behalf of all students, parents, staff and our school community.
To the Founder of CISB, Dr. Francis Pang, the Chairman of CISB, Dr. Charles Pang and the Board of Directors, thanks for your much appreciated support as we worked together to create a CISB that everyone could be proud of.
I am also grateful for the friendships forged and the memories created during my tenure as Head of School. The collaborative spirit, camaraderie, and shared sense of purpose have made every challenge surmountable and every success sweeter.
As I prepare to embark on a new chapter, I leave my current role with a deep sense of pride in all that we have accomplished together. Together is Better! CISB stands as a beacon of excellence in education, driven by a collective commitment to preparing our students to thrive in an ever-changing global landscape.
