AYA Clash of ColorsOn Saturday April 26th a group of 40 CIC students spent their morning with 35 girls from CASA HOGAR LUISA CACERES DE ARISMENDI. They participated in three different games organized by Mr. Wilfredo and the AYA officers and a water race in which all participants had a lot of fun . They were divided in six colors and created a song and a motto as a way to bond with their team members. Later they did a colorful parade showing the audience how proud they were to represent their colors. We all had a great time! Pictures for the AYA Clash of Colors are here.
An Evening on BroadwayThis year's show was truly an all-school production and included contributions and performances by students, teaching and non-teaching staff, parents and friends. "An Evening on Broadway",was an excellent review of songs, dances, and scenes from four of the most popular and successful musicals of all time: Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, The Lion King, Les Miserables and West Side Story. Also on display was an Art Exhibition with artwork created by students from PK to 12th grade. Pictures can be seen here.
CIC Concert BandOn Thursday, April 17th, the CIC Concert Band delighted the audience with good music ranging from classic rock to musical show tunes. Mr. Glenn Tomassi directed with great enthusiasm and energy. Certificates were awarded to our students for their effort, excellence and improvement during this school year. Congratulations on a great show! Photos are now in the gallery.

During Semana Santa (March 14 - 23) this year, the Modern Languages Department again, for the 7th year, sponsored an educational trip to Turkey. Our teachers, Karen Massieu and Jorge Gaviria, led a group of 43 students, parents and friends from the CIC Community on a lovely trip around the legendary and at times, remote, Republic of Turkey. Turkey is the meeting place of two continents, the home of a variety of cultures both modern and ancient, the cradle of civilization and has influenced literature in important ways as well as being the location of wonderful scenery, legends and markets! We share our experience in the photogallery.
