Lifelong Learners

Patrick Green with parents

For Everyone in the Community 

At ISP, we are dedicated to cultivating a culture of lifelong learning for our entire community, including students, parents, staff, and faculty. 

That's why we're committed to providing a wide range of opportunities for everyone in our community to expand their knowledge of education, parenting strategies, digital wellness skills, and other pertinent subjects in our ever-evolving world. Through a range of engaging programmes and workshops like our Edge in Education and Distinguished Speaker Series, we empower each member of our community to stay informed, adaptable, and inspired on their own journey of lifelong learning.

Bringing accomplished professionals to ISP gives our students and families access to expertise and ideas that will help shape their experience and inspire them to go out and change the world.Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of our donors, we were honored to welcome Petr Sís, world-renowned author, illustrator, graphic artist, and storyteller to ISP in September 2022, as the first speaker in our Distinguished Speaker Series in honour of Dr. Arnie Bieber, ISP Director for 13 years, and his wife Marianne.

 

“One of the benefits of being part of a world class school is not only the things we do inside of the classroom, but the things that are available to us outside of the classroom.”

Dr. Chip Kimball, ISP Director
