Educational mission and vision at ISA
The International School of Athens is an academic community of students, faculty, and parents united in a philosophy dedicated to fostering in all of its students a love of learning, self-discipline and self-knowledge.
The community upholds the belief that what a school chooses to teach is reflected in its regard for its human relationships, in its appreciation of cultural diversity and the way in which it interacts with all of its members. We are proud of our “sense of family” and the friendships and camaraderie that it inspires.
