Welcome from the Head
Welcome to NIS!
At this school we are focused on learning: Inquire, Inspire, Impact!
INQUIRE: It starts in the classroom with questions; it is only by questioning our world that students can come to understand our world. NIS learners are taught not to answer the question - but to question the answers
INSPIRE: From this inquiry comes connection. Through questioning the world NIS learners begin to appreciate the beauty, complexity and potential of the world around them; they become inspired to learn more, be more and do more! Inspire!
IMPACT: And from inspiration comes a desire to take action and have impact. NIS learners make a choice to contribute to their communities. NIS learners follow their dreams and find ways to shape the world around them for the better.
This is the blueprint for learning at NIS and it excites me to be a part of a school driven by such a passionate mission. We deliver on the mission through the framework of the IB programs supported by caring teachers who aspire to help children grow as unique individuals. As an inclusive community, NIS works together to ensure access to learning and well-being for all enrolled students.
I am fortunate to work alongside a dedicated leadership team, staff and faculty who are mission-focused and dedicated in supporting your child's success at NIS. We all look forward to working with you as partners during the 2023-2024 academic year and beyond.
