What students and parents think about ISD

Sadaf (Mother of two Elementary School children)

ISD is the second home for my children. Both of them feel safe and secure. I have been sending my children to school with a good feeling for 3 years now. My daughter is in Grade 1, she loves learning new things every day and enjoys being part of this colorful community.

Mateo (Grade 9 student)

What I particularly like about the school is that it has an increasingly diverse and international student community, so I can have friends from different countries and from different cultural backgrounds. Also, our teachers encourage us to develop and assume a sense of responsibility to all members of our ISD community.

Mercédesz (mother of a Grade 7 and a Grade 11 child)

My children have become part of a community where their individuality can flourish. They learned about the cultures of other nations, which opened their global interest even more. They are truly curious about the world.
Acceptance has become such a natural part of their personality that we parents can only learn from them. During their studies they learn to see situations in context, to learn critical thinking, not just to accept facts. They dare to ask questions, really good questions actually.
