Vision of an ISK Graduate
The ISK Vision of the Graduate defines the essential skills and dispositions we want every student to develop by the time they complete their ISK journey. These are transferable skills that go beyond the classroom and are vital for success in further education, the workplace, and life.

Our learners are at the heart of everything we do at ISK. Coming from over 30 different countries, they bring a wealth of cultures, languages, and perspectives that enrich diverse learning community. This international environment allows our learners to develop a deep understanding of different worldviews, fostering a spirit of intercultural sensitivity and global citizenship that is evident in our classrooms, hallways, and on our courts and fields.
In grades 11 and 12, our students have the option to pursue either the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme or the ISK High School Diploma, both of which equip them with the skills, knowledge, and mindset needed to succeed in an increasingly interconnected world.
Our graduates go on to attend top universities across the globe, with many choosing to study in Europe, North America, and beyond. With an education grounded in internationalism, ISK students have the unique advantage of being able to seamlessly transition to higher education anywhere in the world, ready to thrive and make a difference wherever they go.
An American High School Diploma Recognized Worldwide
Our students graduate with a fully accredited American High School Diploma, just like they would at a top private high school in the United States. ISK is proud to be accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC), one of the leading accrediting bodies for American schools around the world.
Because ISK is also recognized by the U.S. Department of State as an official American overseas school, our diploma carries the same weight and credibility as any diploma earned in the U.S. It is even signed by the U.S. Secretary of State.
This diploma is accepted by universities across the U.S., Europe, and internationally, giving students a strong foundation for their future wherever they choose to go.
