"It sounds trite but ISI produces citizens of the world. From community service, to exchange trips, to daily interactions with teachers and peers, I was regularly confronted with the idea that the world is a complex, diverse place. As a result, I developed the tools to adapt to my surroundings and connect with people from all walks of life - whether that was a night out in Bloomington or interning on the Supreme Court of Ghana." 

"ISI had a fine balance of fostering a very close-knit group that relied on each other while encouraging us to be self-sufficient and independent young people. I felt prepared to go out into the world as an active participant, as a leader, and most importantly as a teammate."

“ISI is a school that goes beyond teaching a set of facts; it teaches students how to think critically and make their own assessments of the world.”

At International School of Indiana (ISI), our mission is to prepare our students for the world stage. We do this by engaging students with their studies, but also through our students' meaningful interactions outside of the classroom. See how alumna Monica Morrisey made the most of her ISI experience.
