Reading Club- Visit of Author
On Friday, November 10th, IAB Reading Club “Tintas en el tiempo” had a rewarding session thanks to the talk provided by the Mexican writer Hiram Ruvalcaba, author of the novel titled “Todo pueblo es cicatriz”. Issues of current significance, occurred in the past but persisting to these days in Mexican society were addressed during the session. The author made clear that the message he wants to convey through his novel is: In order to heal as a society it is necessary to be empathetic and to practice forgiveness even in cases of extreme pain and violence. We invite the school community to get to know the work of author Hiram Ruvalcaba and practice forgiveness and empathy in their daily lives.
Thank you so much for the author’s participation via online and the presence of the reading club members.

Professional Development on Autism and Neurodiversity🧠💫
Last week, our school teachers, psychopedagogy team, and leadership team participated in the Bootcamp Autismo 360, in pursuit of their professional development. The aim of the training was to explore the different ways in which we can be part of and value neurodiversity, as well as specific strategies to apply in our classroom and daily life. Eventually, the course instructors visited Cumbres campus carrying out a session of reflection and questions addressing better strategies and practices along with staff of both campuses. As a school, this represents one more step towards inclusion and care for the different needs of our students.
Proud to be IAB!
