AISD Class of 2020: Congratulations Razzaq!

A big shout-out to the AISD Class of 2020!








Congratulations to our dear son, Razzaq!

You made it, despite all the challenges that we are witnessing this year with the COVID-19 global pandemic.

Normal school was interrupted but not your dreams.

2020 will go down in history for several reasons and your journey will be part of it.

We pray that you'll continue to be motivated and excel at university as you embark on this chapter of your life.

Best wishes from all of us.

(Virtual Graduation Day: Friday 05th June 2020)
