RIS Uniform
A reminder to parents that students should wear the appropriate RIS uniform. Students must wear their official RIS pants or skirt, shirt, and tie on days when they do not have PE classes, and may wear the school PE uniform on days when they do have PE class.
Any students who arrive at school in clothing other than their uniform will not be allowed to join their class until their parents have brought them the appropriate clothing. Once they have changed into their RIS uniform, they will be welcome to join their class for the day of instruction.
RIS respects that children's clothes may become dirty over the course of a week. However, as much as possible, parents need to ensure that the students are wearing clean school clothes daily.
The uniform may not be altered in any way. If students are feeling cold, they may wear their RIS sweater or jacket. Students may not wear a different shirt or sweatshirt over their regular school uniform.
When the students have PE, they may wear their PE uniforms, on the following days:
Grade One: Friday
Grade Two: Wednesday
Grade Three: Wednesday
Grade Four: Friday
Grade Five: Monday
Grade Six: Thursday
Grade Seven: Monday
Grade Eight: Tuesday
On all other days, students must wear their regular RIS school uniform.
If you have any questions about this policy, please do not hesitate to contact school administrators via telephone or email.

Seoul Museum of Art
Dear Middle School Parents,
We hope that you had an enjoyable holiday and a great start to the New Year! This term in the Middle School Language Arts, Math, and Art classes, the students are studying new units that are related to the area of Fine Arts. Currently, there is an exhibit at the Seoul Museum of Art about the painter Chagall that would be beneficial for the students to make connections between the classroom and the outside world.
The field trip will take place on Tuesday, January 18th, and we will leave the school at 9:20am and return back to school in time for lunch. The entrance fee is 8,000 won for students, and we ask that you only pay 4,000 won as the school will cover the other half.
If you have any questions regarding this field trip (costs, transportation, etc.) Please do not hesitate to contact the office staff, Mr. Emin Huseynov, or Miss. Sylvia Lee. This will be a great opportunity for the students to unleash their creative energy!
Here is the website for the gallery that we will be going to:
