G6-12 : very short survey

Good morning, Students in Grades 6-12,

On behalf of Student Council and myself, please complete this 2-question survey.   The first question asks that you provide 3 words that come to mind when you think of “international-mindedness” at NIS.  As a result, we will develop an NIS understanding of this part of our mission.
