“AHEPA and CIS are proud to announce the Koios Scholarship Fund,” said AHEPA International President Ike Gulas. “As AHEPA continues to work hard to advance its mission, this opportunity will give all interested students the ability to learn about Hellenism and its contributions around the world,” added Gulas.
CIS offers unique dual-language immersion programs in English and the choice of Greek, Arabic, French, Mandarin or Spanish for students in kindergarten through twelfth grade. The school’s curriculum is inquiry-based and trans-disciplinary. As an IB Candidate School, CIS also offers innovative programs such as Olympism based athletics and peace studies.
“This scholarship fund, via AHEPA, will help with the Promotion of Greek Language and Culture throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area,” said Assistant Head of School Christopher Dubia. “Here at Coeus we are conscious of the impact of Greek thought and culture on western civilization,” added Dubia.
In addition to the scholarship fund and financial aid opportunities, CIS offers AHEPA members a discount on the standard tuition rate.
AHEPA –
AHEPA is the largest Greek-American association in the world with chapters in the United States, Canada, Greece, and Cyprus and sister chapters in Australia and New Zealand. It was established in 1922 by visionary Greek Americans to protect Hellenes from prejudice originating from the KKK, and in its history, AHEPA joined with the NAACP and B'nai B'rith to fight discrimination.
The mission of the AHEPA family is to promote the ideals of Hellenism, education, philanthropy, civic responsibility and family and individual excellence.
