VISION

Mission, Values and Definition of Learning

Our Vision Statement

Enriching communities through the intellectual, humanitarian, and creative thoughts and actions of our learners

One of the most important things about ISB is the clear, unwavering dedication to our mission, attributes, and values. For us, as an organization and as a community, these ideals shape our thoughts and actions and guide our way into the future.

Our ISB Learner Attributes and Values were developed through a multi-year research and development initiative that led us to define the essential skills - beyond knowledge and academic abilities - that our students need to be successful and make a difference in the world during and beyond their time at ISB.

ISB identified six learner attributes that are of particular importance today, thus we provide students with opportunities to be:

Creative Developing new and imaginative ideas that have impact.

Globally-Minded Invested in the world and its people, embracing diversity, and aware of the impact of actions on local and global communities.

Adaptable Responding appropriately and with flexibility to ambiguous or changing circumstances.

Socially-Intelligent Recognizing personal emotions and those of others, managing responses productively and collaborating effectively.

Value-Driven Guided by our ISB Values, promoting positive citizenship and fostering personal meaning.

Self-Managing Independently directing, monitoring, and evaluating personal behaviors, goals and time.
