The International School of Charlottesville

Inspiring curious minds and nurturing understanding hearts through language-immersion in Spanish and French for a lifetime of global citizenship

Children at ISC become global citizens through hands-on exploration of their environment; open-ended experimentation with materials and ideas; and full immersion in a multilingual, multicultural community. Through participation and play in a safe and nurturing environment, children develop strong self-esteem and interpersonal skills, in addition to academic, artistic, and cultural competencies and curiosity. The ISC’s deep experience in bilingual pedagogy supports children to develop flexibility, creativity, higher-order thinking, goodwill, and literacy across languages and cultures. As a result of their time at ISC, children develop well-rounded social, emotional, interpersonal, and intellectual skills.
