OIS was honored to recently host popular author and public speaker, Mr. Christopher O’Shaughnessy, to speak to the OIS community! With his engaging personality and insightful experiences, he delved into the strengths and challenges faced by students living and learning in a multicultural environment, offering insights into what it means to be a third-culture-kid.
This is particularly crucial to acknowledge in an international school setting, as both staying and transitioning students are impacted by this constant change. Having Mr. O’Shaughnessy is just one of the numerous ways that OIS consistently provides resources to assist the community in navigating transition and the changes it brings.
