SCHOOLS WITH A STRONG VISION FOR LEARNING
I chose to teach at SCIS because of the truly international community that supports learning and growing in an inquiry-based environment. The school’s vision of international-mindedness is reflected in the many events held on campus and in the way that students and teachers interact with, and respect one another.
