Welcome to the AAS Parent's Zone

This flow chart was created to assist in understanding the process for parents to address their questions or concerns.

Being a good digital citizen and a responsible member of the AAS-Sofia community means students come to school prepared to learn by:

• bringing their laptop to school each day, in operating condition, with sufficient storage available for school use, and with the battery fully charged;
• managing their battery use to ensure that they can get through the school day and participate fully;
• backing up and managing the files on their device;
• making use of designated folder architecture in Google Docs and file naming protocols defined by the teacher.

In addition:

• computer use during recess and lunch will be limited to completing work in designated study areas;
• computer use at school should be limited to installed or online programs that are directly connected to school-related activities;
• recreational games, non-academic use of social networking sites or other activities that disrupt studies, peers or classes are strongly discouraged.

As the new school year is starting in the very near future, together with the AAS staff we have actively worked out a canteen food service plan in order to comply with all COVID requirements, while providing a quick and safe food service.

Cafeteria services at AAS will be available on a pre-ordered boxed lunch only at the beginning of the year.

In order to assure a smooth start here is some important information:

• For any students that attended school last school year, the balance has been carried forward; this can be checked through our renewed website on the address: https://parents.lfs.bg/parents.php  using your login.
• The food service will be based on Pre-order only and in such we kindly ask to top up the credit line of each student by sending a payment to our IBAN  BG 93 UBBS 8002 1089 4393 40 (Company name LFS EOOD), with the name of the student OR using the new secured website address https://lfs.bg/produkt/zahranvane-na-smetka/ 
• For the start of the new year, until further notice, the system of meal services is only based on a pre-order system and the lunch will be provided, as per the philosophy & requirements by AAS, in a BIO / Sustainable Packaging.
• The price per meal by age group will be as follows and each package will contain daily a fresh salad, main course and homemade dessert or fruit (alternating):
  • PreK  Students – 7.80 BGN 
  • ES Students – 8.50 BGN 
  • MS-HS-Students – 9.70 BGN
• Pre-ordering can be done following the link https://aas.lfs.bg/. Orders can be easily placed for one week ahead and we will accept orders until 14.00 for the next day. The order will be prepared and packed and will be distributed on designated areas based on age group (indicated on-site). Each pack will contain the order, and cash receipt that will show the balance of the card.
• In the event you have pre-ordered and your student does not attend the school for any reason you may cancel the order by sending an email to aas@lfs.bg by 8.30am on the day of the pre-order. You will not be charged for timely cancelled orders, however we regret that beyond that time our service will produce the order and charge the card as ordered

As a service company our goal is to provide meal services in a safe and healthy way and all meals will be prepared on-site with freshly sourced products. It is therefore important that your orders are received in a timely matter to assure the smoothest and efficient meal service possible.

While initially there will be a limited choice of meal combinations (regular or vegetarian) our goal is to increase choice if the food service load allows to comply with all requirements. In case your student does have a particular dietary need, please do send an email to aas@lfs.bg and we will do our best to comply with the specific requirements.

Immunization Requirements

In order to attend AAS, students must be compliant with the Bulgarian immunization program. On enrolling to AAS, parents must provide documented proof of immunization by a physician or health care provider. Up-to-date health records (allergies, immunizations etc) and contact details are essential in case of emergency. 

Our Nurses 

AAS has two experienced, full time nurses on the premises ensuring the well-being of both students and staff. Ms. Diana Docheva (or Didi) and Mr. Valentin Ivanov (or Val) are based in the dedicated health office. Regular training keeps them up to date with the latest general medical techniques. 

The nurses’ deal with general health issues, such as head lice, communicable diseases and minor injuries at school. In the case of a more serious injury, they would accompany a student to the nearest emergency room and wait with them until the parents arrive.They also act as a liaison between the city health authorities getting updates on seasonal illness outbreaks such as flu etc. so they can advise the community accordingly.

The school nurses are able to administer medication (including over the counter drugs) if authorized in writing by a parent. All medicines must be handed over to the nurses, who will label and store them appropriately.

Students may carry inhalers and Epi-pens for emergency use with proper documentation from a healthcare provider.
