Reminder of Immersion Deadlines

Monday, 28 September 2009


Greetings Upper School Parents:


By the change in the weather outside, October cannot be far away! Here are a couple quick reminders to plot on your schedules and prompt in your children as we welcome the shift to autumn weather.



This week, we will hear presentations during Morning Announcements by upper school faculty members introducing the individual 2010 Immersion Programs. Two really important deadlines for Immersion applications are quickly approaching:


Financial Aid Application Deadline: THIS Friday, OCTOBER 2, 2009 by 3:30PMTurn in to the Upper School Office.



Immersion Application Deadline: NEXT Friday, OCTOBER 9, 2009 by 3:30PMTurn in to student’s Academic Advisor during Advisory.



All deadlines are firm; applications submitted after a deadline will be placed at the bottom of the selection list, regardless of the student’s grade level.

The link to all forms, procedures, and program descriptions for Immersion 2010 are available on the Upper School homepage of the MVS web at: http://www.mvschool.com/inside-mvs/division-homepages/upper-school


Archives to most of the letters, e.mails, and reminders sent from my office are available on Wagner’s MVS Blog, at: http://wagnersmvsblog.blogspot.com/ . I welcome your comments and suggestions.


This Friday, 2 October also marks the end of the mid-term for the Fall Trimester. Comments, work habit/effort marks, and grades are being composed this week by upper school faculty members, for review by Academic Advisors, and then will be delivered via the My Backpack portal on the web. I will send an e.mail to confirm when the mid-terms are live and available, likely by next Friday. Students will review their mid-term comments and grades with their Academic Advisors on Friday, 9 October, during scheduled afternoon Advisory Meetings.


With sincere regards,



Sam Wagner

Head of Upper School
