Dear Al-Bayan Bilingual School Community,
I am honored and excited to introduce myself as the new High School Principal for the 2023-2024 academic year. My name is Katrin Gendy, and I have been in education for 16 years (11 years as a middle and high school science teacher and 5 years as a high school assistant principal). I am thrilled to be joining the Al-Bayan Bilingual School community, and I look forward to working collaboratively with students, parents, and staff to create a vibrant and inclusive learning environment.
As we begin this new school year, I want to emphasize our commitment to academic excellence, student well-being, and community engagement. Our goal is to provide a rigorous and challenging curriculum that prepares students for success in college and beyond, while also fostering a love of learning and passion for personal growth. We believe that education is not just about acquiring knowledge, but also about developing critical thinking skills, creativity, and global awareness.
At Al-Bayan Bilingual School, we also recognize the importance of supporting student well-being and mental health. We are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment where students can thrive both academically and personally. Our counseling and support services are available to all students, and we encourage parents to be active partners in their child’s education and well-being.
Finally, I want to emphasize the importance of community engagement in our school. We believe that education is a collaborative effort, and we value the input and participation of all members of our community. We encourage parents to get involved in school activities and events, and we welcome your feedback and suggestions as we work together to provide the best possible education for our students.
I am thrilled to be joining the Al-Bayan Bilingual School community, and I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you in the coming months. Together, we can create a school culture that fosters academic excellence, personal growth, and community engagement.
Sincerely,
Katrin Gendy
