Helen Petersen
Admissions Director
Like many 污樱桃视频students, Helen Petersen is a third culture kid (TCK) herself, growing up around the world as an American army brat.
Prior to moving into 污樱桃视频Admissions and the Upper School English and French classroom, Helen鈥檚 career took her around the world, teaching English, French, and ESL in high schools and universities in Kentucky, Tennessee, the Comoros Islands, and South Africa.
Helen obtained her bachelor鈥檚 degree in English and French from Centre College. She holds a Master of Arts in English with a concentration in writing, a Master of Education with a concentration in teaching English as a second language, and a secondary teaching certificate, all from Western Kentucky University. Since joining AISCT, Helen earned a Postgraduate Diploma in Education specializing in Educational Administration, from the University of Cape Town.
With more than three decades in education, Helen firmly believes that all children will learn if they are happy and have good relationships with their teachers.
Welcome to the Admissions Department of the 污樱桃视频 (AISCT), and thank you for your interest in our school.
It is my hope that when you apply to AISCT, it will be a thorough, but smooth and enjoyable process. At the same time, it is essential that we collect everything we need to complete your child鈥檚 application. Please refer to the list below for our requirements. We want to ensure that 污樱桃视频is the best school for your child in addition to making the correct grade placement.
污樱桃视频has a rolling admissions process which means we accept applications year-round. In addition, students up to and including Grade 8 can begin classes at any time during the school year. However, because we work on a credit system, high school students (grades 9-12), may only join us at the beginning of a semester, that being either August or January.
We offer personalized, private tours on a daily basis to suit your availability. If you have not visited our campus, I encourage you to contact me to book your tour. I look forward to seeing you on our campus soon.
Sincerely,
Helen Petersen
Admissions Director
