From the BAIS Director’s Desk

Dear Parents,

We Heard You!

Thank you for the feedback we have received from all of you through our many means of communication. We have heard from you through PACE, DAC, DWD, small grade level meetings, surveys, coffees, and numerous informal interactions around campus. We are so appreciative of your feedback.

Based on your feedback here are a few recent and future changes :

We would like to see a Full Day Option for Preschool

In 2018-2019 there will be an option for a full-day preschool program. All students will come in the morning with enrichment elements in the afternoon.

We would like to see more options available in Mathematics

The 2017-18 school year saw the implementation of the new mathematics pathways program. This resulted in the ability to offer students striving for two AP Calculus classes the track to do so along with the option to travel a less rigorous path.

We would like to see discounts available for larger families

Next school year we will be introducing a multiple child discount. 3% for the second child, 5% for the third child, and 10% for the fourth child.

We would like to see more students enroll

BAIS is engaging in an aggressive pricing model and structure. There will be no price increase for 2018-2019, based on the underlying USD pricing. In fact, because there will be a new tuition structure, the elementary tuition will actually be decreasing. Secondly, in an effort to recruit new families, BAIS will offer a 5% tuition discount for the first year for new students. Over the next two years, BAIS would like to see an enrollment increase between 20-30 students. Therefore, if you refer a family to BAIS that enrolls, you will receive a Rp. 10 juta tuition benefit. Exclusions apply, details can be obtained from Mr. Boccacio.

Blessings,
Mr. Karl Nielsen
BAIS Director

Reenrollment Reminder

Before the Christmas holiday, we have sent the 2018-2019 reenrollment form. Please complete the reenrollment form and return it with the appropriate fees to the BAIS office on or before Friday, March 2, 2018. The reenrollment form can be collected in the school office, on the school website, and is also attached in the email you received for this edition of the BAIS BUZZ. Your child’s reenrollment for the 2018-2019 school year is secure when this form and the accompanying payment have been received. Payment can be made by bank transfer or cash to the finance office.

The bank account information is the following:

Bank Name PT Bank Permata
Bank Address Jalan Merdeka No. 66, Bandung
Account Name Yayasan Bandung Alliance Intercultural S
Account # 809-01-8415
Swift Code BBBAIDJA

Please note after March 2, 2018 your child’s seat in class is no longer secure. Some classes are close to their student limit, so please reenroll promptly to ensure your student’s seat. The 7,000,000 IDR non-refundable reenrollment deposit will be applied towards the student’s fall 2016 tuition. After March 2, 2018, only 5,500,000 IDR of the 7,000,000 IDR deposit will be applied towards the student’s fall 2018 tuition.

We appreciate your support! If you have any questions, please stop by the office at any time.
