How to Become an MIS Family
MIS is interested in students and families who share its vision of creating internationally minded, lifelong learners. We seek students and families who want to involve themselves in the school community, and support our values of connection, cooperation and creativity.
A successful MIS student will engage in the opportunities our school provides, and embrace the challenging IB curriculum, the language immersion and the inquiry-based program.

Tuition Assistance
The value of an MIS education – and making it attainable.
You are here, so we know you value education as we do. MIS is an investment in your child’s future, and we strive to make it an option for all families who desire it.
We understand that every family's financial situation is unique, and we don’t want cost to be a barrier to joining the MIS community. If you believe MIS is the right fit for your child but have concerns about affordability, we encourage you to apply for tuition assistance. The process is straightforward, confidential, and designed to be accessible. Tuition assistance at MIS is awarded based on demonstrated financial need and the availability of school funds.
To be considered, both parents or legal guardians must complete the SSS (School and Student Services) application and submit any required supporting documents. All financial information is reviewed carefully by SSS, which provides MIS with award recommendations based on each family's demonstrated financial need.
An MIS Education Is An Investment In Your Child’s Future
Guided by our core values of cooperation, connection and creativity, at MIS we value an academic culture that fosters individual responsibility, creativity, and critical thinking through inquiry and collaboration. By promoting meaningful relationships, multilingual connections, and a safe, inclusive environment, we nurture confident, well-rounded individuals committed to serving both local and global communities.

We admit students at all grade levels regardless of their language skills. Language acquisition is a process, and newcomers who join a class in the upper grades may have more of an adjustment period but will also receive individualized and small group Spanish instruction. We view the ongoing language development of a student as a shared responsibility of teachers, parents and the student. A successful student will participate fully with confidence and enthusiasm!
