I have one child currently attending this school. It is a warm & caring community with wonderful parents and wonderful teachers. In addition, mutual respect and kindness is exhibited by all I interacted with. ISS has done wonderful job recruiting teachers from different cultures and background. They provide child centered education. My child is getting exposed to diversity I did not find at any other place- & my child went to 3 different schools . The quality of instruction has been great and my child is learning new concepts at such an impressive pace. Parent groups like the PTT and Outreach Committee do an amazing job of building a sense of community by giving. This school does an amazing job catering to low income students and providing free tuition to those who cannot afford private education in their community. Their overall graduation rate is impressive. This school is a model

As a previous teacher of this school I can tell you that this school is very forward thinking on their educational viewpoints. The adminstration are passionate and care greatly about what happens and work to ensure their staffing feels the same. Since working at more than four schools since my departure I can tell you that if you are looking for a small child centered private school that will think of your child first and not just making sure they score well on state tests look here~ Former Teacher~

A progressive school, both in an Islamic and educational context. This progressive nature has been a consistent source of tension with those of more traditional viewpoints. If you are looking for a happy, child centered, theme based school ISS will be a great fit for children and parents of all faiths.

I am very please with my child's experience at ISS... she's speaking Arabic, feels respected, and I see how the teachers do their best to cater to the individual learning style and needs of the children. The montessori style is the best! Where else can you go and see youth willing to lead themselves through their work?! The building's in need of some TLC, but otherwise the current staff and the staff's level of commitment and passion is excellent!
