From the Director
Welcome to the American United School of Kuwait
Our guiding principle is “Learning - Anytime, Anywhere.” We have been put to the test and I must say we have met the challenges and exceeded expectations. Our focus now, once again, returns with preparing our building and our classrooms for the safe return to in-person learning. Intrinsically we know that in-person learning is essential for our kids. Educational research and mental health professionals support this and advocate for their return.
As we transition back to campus, decisions at school will continue to be measured against “promoting creativity and collaboration, challenging academic growth, embracing our diverse community, and enhancing student learning through technology.” We will also focus extra attention on the social and emotional well-being of our students as they return to school during COVID-19.
As I walk the halls of our school there is a great sense of pride and excitement in the building. In the short term, for health and safety concerns, we will continue to restrict guest access to the building. When the time is right we will once again invite guests into the building to experience the positive atmosphere our students have come to know and love.
Looking forward to welcoming you to the 2021-2022 school year at AUS,
Michael J Wininger, Director
