Dear MIS Families,

I am writing to you as a fellow parent with two children currently at Munich International School in Grade 4 and in Grade 1. It has been a great honor to serve on the MIS Board for the last three years, and I am now standing for re-election for a second term. As I near the end of my first term, I want to share what we have achieved together and why I am eager to continue supporting our school’s future.

### My Contributions as Board Member

Over the past three years, I have served as Board Member and Board Secretary. As the current chair of the Board of Directors Strategy and Education Committee, I have focused on:

- Developing a framework for educational excellence with clear objectives and key results to ensure consistently strong outcomes for every student.
- Increasing the use of data to inform our educational strategy and support outstanding teaching and learning.
- Contributing to the search for our new Head of School and serving on the Nominations and Capital Campaigns committees to strengthen our school’s foundation.

### Bringing Professional Expertise to MIS

Outside of my work at MIS, I am an entrepreneur and tech startup executive. My career has been dedicated to building high-performing organizations, particularly in the education and learning sectors. I was the Cofounder and President of Multiverse.io, where I led educational design and delivery that helped the organization achieve an "Outstanding" rating from OFSTED. I also founded One Garden, an online learning platform that I eventually sold to Saga Plc. Today, I run my own advisory practice, supporting growth-stage founders with financial planning, organizational scaling, and strategic leadership.

I believe this background—combining deep experience in education with the strategic rigor of a CEO—allows me to offer a unique perspective to the Board as we navigate complex and evolving environments.

### Why Continuity Matters Now

MIS is at an important point in its development. As we prepare to welcome our new Head of School, I believe that continuity, institutional knowledge, and a clear focus on priorities are essential. In my second term, I want to use my experience to:

- Translate our school’s vision into a concrete strategic plan that will guide us for years to come.
- Support a successful leadership transition to ensure stability and progress.
- Contribute to fundraising and community engagement efforts that enable us to invest in our children's future.

I care deeply about the future of MIS and am committed to ensuring every student has the support they need to realize their boldest dreams. I encourage you to support the upcoming Board election and would be honored to receive your vote to continue serving this wonderful community.

Warmly,

**Sophie Adelman**
