+ Andere hören, andere sehen, weltoffen denken und handeln. 2015–2016 SCHOOL YEAR CALENDAR Welcome to the 2015–2016 school year! To help families navigate the year ahead, we’ve gathered important dates from TCGIS, Kinderclub (our extended day childcare program), the GAI (Germanic-American Institute), and the TCGIS PTO (Parent Teacher Organization), and listed them here, all in one place. Dates and times are subject to change. Please confirm with the sponsoring organization, and be sure to check weekly Elternbrief emails for updates. See the back cover for key contact information. Additional calendars may be purchased in the school office for a nominal fee. This complimentary calendar was printed, in part, thanks to a generous contribution from the Germanic-American Institute.
