School News
On January 24, our school held a conference entitled “100 Questions to an Adult” with documentary producer/director Yazamir Gott.
Mr. Gott presented his new documentary dedicated
to a very special group of actors: those performing in a unique Moscow
theater which hires actors with Down Syndrome. The conference was opened
with an excerpt from the film, which spawned a serious and complex
discussion about humanity, kindness, sincerity, happiness, and what really
matters in life. Enormous thanks to Sergei Dyachenko, who gave us the opportunity to hold a discussion with the incredible Yazamir Gott.
Slavic-Anglo-American School "Marina" (SAAS "Marina")SAAS "Marina" is a foreign lanquage school that opened its doors for the first time in September 1990. (Official registration date is January 31, 1991). The school consists of three levels: elementary-, middle- and high-school. These cover the total range of a regular Russian school, from ages six to seventeen (grades 1 to 11). Students beginning at the elementary level are able to follow the program through to its completion. Therefore, it is possible to enter at that level and remain in the regular program for eleven years. Older students entering at the intermediate or upper levels, who have little or no language background, spend one year in an immersion or preparatory group ("courses or supplemental school"). They are then mainstreamed into the regular program. |
HAPPY NEW YEAR
