SABIS^® Network schools are often long-standing fixtures in their communities, playing an important role in serving the education needs of generations of families. Throughout the 2017-18 academic year, a number of SABIS^® Network schools celebrated milestone anniversaries, each one organizing celebrations in harmony with their school and community culture.

In Lahore, Pakistan, the International School of Choueifat – Lahore marked 25 Years of Building Futures. The school celebrated its 25^th anniversary by holding a number of events throughout the academic year. In fact, almost every co-curricular and extracurricular activity during the year revolved around Building Futures or was inspired by it one way or another. The anniversary year culminated in the graduation ceremony of the Class of 2018, where SABIS^® President Carl Bistany was the commencement speaker. Joining him as a speaker at the ceremony was the Honorable Mrs. Zakia Shahnawaz Khan, former Minister for Environment Protection and member of the Provincial Assembly of Punjab. In her keynote address, she stressed the importance of education and congratulated ISC-Lahore on the quality education it provides Pakistani youth, who are well-equipped to excel in all fields both at home and abroad. ISC-Lahore also held a 25^th Anniversary Gala and Years of Service Award Ceremony on June 3, 2018, in which long-term staff members were recognized for their dedication and commitment. His Excellency the Governor of Punjab, Mr. Malik Muhammad Rafique Rajwana, attended the dinner as guest of honor. Watch the 25^th anniversary video here:
