family for twelve years, and this institution feels ve forged unbreakable bonds with students and staff at ACG in which I can never seem to get away from as they make me feel welcome each day I attend. I consider the members of ACG to be my family as they have always provided support to me in times of trouble. ACG is the origin of my most significant memories with the individuals there I have witnessed the school expand from a one-story building to a multi-story structure with expanded facilities The ACG family has shaped me into the person I am today, instilling in me independence, resilience, and strong leadership qualities. I look forward to my future endeavours, but ACG will always hold a special position in my heart and I am excited to witness the graduation of many more talented individuals from this special school.

When I was thirteen years old, my dream was to enroll in the IB Diploma Programme A unique dream for a middle-schooler, but still a realistic one For the next two years, I carefully plotted my path to reaching this shortterm dream and achieved an IBDP scholarship here at ACG School Jakarta. There are no words that could describe my gratification to be a part of a community that is incredibly loving, supportive, and kind; surrounded by intellectual students and the best teachers in the world. ACG School Jakarta served as a stepping stone to the dream that a little girl with an underprivileged background once had, for it is filled with opportunities that would make any child believe that dreams, however big or small, could be achieved, with faith As Walt Disney once said: “If you can dream it, you can do it ” TRUST
“Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road”

Half of my formal schooling was conducted at ACG School Jakarta, six years worth. Throughout my time here I was able to develop long-lasting friendships, explore my interests in social sciences, express my creativity in the arts, and never stopped learning in and out of the classroom. I was able to befriend a plethora of personalities and look up to teachers that guided me through the mental extortion that was the IB The class of 2023 has had the privilege of watching each other grow up throughout the years, and we are leaving the school as more mature (well, some of us) and nuanced individuals than when we entered it. I can't entirely predict how my future is going to look, but I know it'll be filled with music, doing what I love surrounded by those I love, and I'm glad that ACG has served as a foundation. I advise underclassmen to never stop asking questions. To inquire is to allow yourself to grow.
Throughout my years at ACG, I've met an abundance of types of students and people However, there was a form of mutual respect shown in every person at ACG. This was shown in many ways and forms from in the classroom to the sports teams. The tight-knit community allowed us to know every student and no matter what year you came from all students were mutually accepted. The teachers also radiated the same energy which was extremely helpful in my learning. I have created unbreakable bonds through this school and met people who I will stay in contact with for an extremely long time. However, the ACG’s environment is a type of community that I will bring with me throughout my adulthood I am extremely grateful for the school and what it has done for me and wish nothing but the best for the school's future
