International Studies features
high academic standards in a project-based learning environment. Each
classroom features computers, Sympodiums and/or Smart Boards, Senteo
systems (student hand-held data devices), and various artifacts which
support their continent of study. The dominant literacy focus is
reflected in every element of the school, including an attractive
readers lounge in every classroom. The school's international focus
extends beyond the classroom. IS students make a difference in the
world in which they live. Through community service projects, students
have raised support for children in Africa and China, and raised money
to save a rain forest in South America. Learning a foreign language is
fun at IS. Each student (1st-6th grade) receives 60 minutes of Spanish
instruction each week in the Spanish Lab.
