Public Relations & Communications

Elementary teachers understand the impact of communicating student academic and behavioral growth over time. Parents and teachers interact in a variety of ways to collaborate and support student learning.

Two “Ambassadors”, Ms. Arirat Jeensae (Oil) and Ms. Wanitchaya Pinkeo (Nong) are the official liaisons for all Thai students and parents in the elementary school.

The following is our basic system of communicating student learning:

Component	Timeline	Purpose
