International Community High School

We are a community of English Language Learners from all parts of the world, learning and working together in teams. Our school and classes are small. Students receive personal attention from teachers and school staff. All classes are taught in English and students can use their native language skills to acquire more understanding and prepare assignments and projects. Everyone learns English while learning math, science, and social studies. Students are given a college preparatory experience, with internship opportunities in preparation for life after high school. We are part of a growing network of international schools with over 20 years of successful experiences working with recent immigrant youth and their families.
