“It was very enjoyable, because there were lots of activities for us to do. For example, PoP project was difficult, but on the other hand, I could felt sense of accomplishment. Also I could work with people who had same topic with me, so it was quite fun to talk and collaborate with them. In addition, when we went out for the PoP field trip, I liked how we interact with Indian kids.” Name(required) Email(required) Website Message #AwESome #8thGrade #HumansofMiddleSchool #Inte

Finale with the DM team!

It is the end of the semester and we all have to say goodbye. Including our DM team. The team has made huge accomplishments in the blog. This is what our team thinks. Satvik, 8th Grade In my previous schools they never even had a newspaper, or any sort of blog or anything. When coming into this school, I never thought it had journalism class. Also, I thought it would be an extracurricular activity rather than a whole class. My first article was a collaboration with Dan, it re

“In my free time I like to read and sometimes play basketball with my dad in our front yard. I participated in ASIAC because my mom made the team when she was in high school. She felt that I should try out, because I was able to travel last year, and I was able to see how fun it was to travel and be part of the team and a representative of our school. When I made the team, I felt excited and nervous. I was excited to travel and get to know more people but nervous that we woul

New Delhi Love Songs

Something amazing happend last February: one of our teachers, Mr. Creighton, published a book. When you hear the word ‘book’, you likely think of a story with chapters. However, Mr. Creighton’s new book, New Delhi Love Songs, is a collection of poems that connect together like pieces of an intricate puzzle to form one picture of life in New Delhi. A month ago I sat with Mr.Creighton and interviewed him about New Delhi Love Songs. His answers shed light on his book and on what

“I started playing basketball at the start of Grade 8. I was introduced to this sport by my friends. They encouraged me to play with them but I didn’t feel like it at first. As I got used to it, the more I wanted to play and now it’s one of my favorite sport. What I am excited for 9th grade is that we get more freedom, as in, we can be more independent. This is a good thing for me because I want to know how it feels like having all that freedom current 9th graders have been b

“It was very fun spending time with my friends and playing volleyball with people I don’t know. Although it was very awkward playing with other people, we all played good and respected each other by playing with good sportsmanship. My team, which was AES came first, winning all of our games. It was very hard, but we were still able to beat lots of good teams like Chennai A team, Bombay A team and our own school’s B team. Our B team, the Tigers came 3rd. They lacked in communi

Culture at AES – Embrace It

As a member of The Direct Message, it’s my and my team’s responsibility to represent who we are as a Middle School. We love crazy news like Logan Paul and Kim Jong Un. We embrace sports and our opportunities to travel. Those extracuriculars and electives are like safe havens to us, away from the mumbo-jumbo of long, tiring equations and writing long paragraphs about the deep meaning behind books. Yet something that represents us so greatly but is hardly ever touched upon is o

“I like to talk and text with my friends, listen to music, and dance to the music I listen to in my free time. I listen and dance to all kinds of music, but I prefer pop music, and k-pop dances. Music helps me concentrate and be calm, and dancing helps me get rid of stress while having fun.” #AwESome #7thGrade #HumansofMiddleSchool #Interview
