ALUMNI
Greetings to all German International School Washington D.C. graduates, former students, families, faculty and staff!
No matter how long you were at GISW, whether two years or twelve; no matter how much time has passed since you walked the school halls, you always remain part of the GISW community. You have contributed to nearly 60 years of our school history, and we wish to nurture and strengthen the special bond that you have to the GISW and your former classmates, peers and friends.
We hope we can stay connected in several ways:
1. Be sure to give us your current contact details so we can inform you of any events in your area and keep you up-to-date with our Alumni Newsletter. You can use the online form or complete this paper form and return to alumni@giswashington.org.
2. Please stop by and visit if you are in the Washington DC area! We love to show you around and hear your stories of life on campus over the years.
3. Join us on Facebook and LinkedIn to stay connected with the school community, your peers and other GISW alumni.
You may have left the building, but you will always be a part of the community!
Warm regards from GISW!
