Director of Marketing
Dr. Connie Kim
Connie talks about research for innovative schools and shares that “the schedule symbolizes what we stand for and what values we hold dear. Innovative schools have to have flexibility. If you’re too entrenched or too fixed, then innovation won’t happen.”
We certainly saw flexible schedules throughout the period of Covid-19, and Connie commends the teachers, the students, and parents on their nimbleness. “It really speaks to our fortitude and courage. That’s where I really felt the power of the community that is HKIS.”
Connie is moving to Vietnam to become the Head of School of the newly-opened Chadwick International School Ecopark in Hanoi. We wish her all the best!

The Power of Statistics
Teaching Applied Statistics helps students be more than skeptics of data. They not only question, but apply what they learn and better understand the power of statistics.

Busy at Play, Busy at Work
Over the years, our teachers have become experts at guiding play to create genuine learning experiences, but this has raised the question: How do we assess learning in this context?
