International School of Stuttgart > ISS community > PTA > PTA Handbook - 9th Edition - October 2008
Living in a foreign country is a rewarding experience, but it can be difficult if you are always at a loss for where to go to get the basic necessities like food and clothing or what to do when a family member is sick and needs medical attention. Be assured that we have all gone through this stage and come out of it, having grown as well as enjoying our new lives. By sharing the resources we all accumulate during our stay here in the Stuttgart area, we can help not only the current school community but also those who will come after us. The recommendations in this handbook have been received from past and present ISS parents. We hope that it will continue to be updated with current information and corrections. If you have any corrections or new ideas please send them to the PTA via the school office or email the PTA Welcoming Committee Chair. You may find a mixture of American and English spelling, reflecting the backgrounds of the various contributors. To view the section contents, click the Section title below, or you can open the entire 9th edition of the PTA Handbook.
