January 29–February 1, eight SOIS students traveled to the British School of Beijing (BSB) to participate in two AISA events: a math mania competition and a student leadership conference. Four Sabers “mathletes” – Yuichi Yoshioka, Sangjin Oh, Re Ea Tay, and Ryoko Izuta (for the second time) – competed against math students from the other three AISA schools. Also, four SOIS student council members – Sungwook Eun, Emily Yamanaka, Kanako Tsutsumi, and Eugenie Shin (for the second time) – took part in a collaborative conference in which they explored international leadership issues and shared common student leadership experiences with their AISA counterparts. These were great events for our students. Special thanks to the teachers who prepared the students – Mr. Bertman, Mr. Dupont, Baba-sensei, and Munemasa-sensei – and to Mr. Bertman and Tosa-sensei for chaperoning.
