I am Bilal Khan, your friendly, neighborhood English teacher. I am incredibly excited to continue working with you as your Grade Level Coordinator (GLC) and to guide you through your sophomore year.
This year marks a significant step in your high school journey. As sophomores, you’ve already experienced the excitement and challenges of transitioning into high school, and now it’s time to build on that foundation. Sophomore year is when you will dive deeper into your academic interests, solidify friendships, and further discover who you are as a learner and a person. It’s a year of growth, exploration, and preparation for what lies ahead.
At ISM, we thrive on tradition, innovation, and holistic growth. This year, I encourage you to push your boundaries in the classroom and beyond. Whether through academics, extracurricular activities, or personal development, take every opportunity to grow and to continue contributing to our vibrant community.
In the spirit of embracing curiosity and self-discovery, let us come together as a class that values resilience, creativity, and diversity. The class of 2027 holds tremendous potential, and I am eager to witness all that you will achieve this year.
As we embark on this new chapter, I encourage you to stay open to the lessons high school has to offer, to seek out beauty in learning, and to embrace the growth that comes with challenge.
Welcome to your sophomore year! May it be filled with inspiration, development, and the pursuit of all things meaningful.
Please do not hesitate to reach out in person or by email (khanb@ismanila.org).
Here’s to a fantastic year ahead!
Mr. Bilal Khan
Grade 10 Grade Level Coordinator
