Over the Summer, the Boarding Team and the Senior Leadership at ISA Science City evaluated the routines, procedures, and policies for boarding. With the input of the students, changes were made to make boarding an even more enjoyable experience that is geared toward academic success. 

暑假期间，寄宿团队和领导层审核并评估了寄宿的日常安排、寄宿流程和寄宿制度，并在学生的参与下，对新学年的寄宿管理做了相应的调整，以便有更好的寄宿体验,更有利于帮助学生取得学业成功。

An important change for students came as a result of the Student Boarding Leadership Team recommending reduced requirements for CCAs. As a result, instead of 4 CCAs per week, boarders are only required to take two CCAs. While CCAs are a crucial part of learning and help students develop excellent social skills we recognised the need for flflexibility in order to allow more time to study or relax depending on the events of the week. To accommodate this change, the ISA Library is now open to students for self-study during CCA hours and the Activity Center is open to students for socialising and supervised as well.

其中非常重要的一项调整是，寄宿生由以前的周一到周四每天都要参加辅助课程调整为每周至少参加两天，剩余两天的课后时间由寄宿学生灵活安排。我们知道，拓展与课后课程也是爱莎科学城学生学习的重要组成部分，能有效培养学生优秀的社交技能，但同时寄宿部也强调学生在个人学习时间安排上的灵活性与自主权。为配合这一调整，学校图书馆和寄宿社区的活动室也在课后时间段对寄宿生全面开放，并有相应的老师进行组织和管理，学生可选择在图书馆学习或前往寄宿活动室参与社交活动。

Another change that has become highly valued by students is prep time supervision. Prep time occurs nightly on school days between 19:00 and 21:00. Prep is the time allotted for students to study and complete homework. This year, supervision during these hours is provided by ISA Science City teachers and leadership members. The academic faculty actively answer questions about homework and provide guidance to students during this time. Each prep period is supervised by two members of the academic faculty from difffferent subject matter areas and one member of the leadership team. For example, Wednesday evening prep time has two faculty members from Maths and Science dedicated to assisting students along with a leadership team member.

对于学生而言，另一重要改变是寄宿生晚间自习的监管安排：寄宿生晚自习的时间是每周一到周四的晚上7点到9点，学生可利用这一时间段学习新知识并完成作业。今年的晚自习由学校高管团队和各学科任课老师共同组织管理。在监督学生晚自习期间，每位学科老师均积极解答学生在作业上的问题，并为学生提供指导。每天的晚自习都是由来自不同学科领域的2名学术教师和1名高管来组织和管理 (例如，周三晚上的晚自习是由2名来自数学和科学部的老师和1名高管来专门监督辅导)。

Students are already recognising the worth of having academic faculty available to them and adjusting their homework schedules to work on subjects that they need help with on nights when specifific teachers are available. The teachers and leadership members love interacting with students in this more casual learning environment. This also serves as a shining example of the devotion the whole school community has for our boarding program at ISA Science City.

学生们逐渐体会到了晚自习有学术教师在身边辅导的益处，并学会根据每天学科老师的值班安排来调整当天晚自习的学习计划，以便在某个学科的学习遇到问题时找对应科目的老师来辅导。学校高管和学科老师均十分享受在这种非教学式的学习环境中与学生互动，这是整个学校社区为寄宿项目做出贡献的表现。
