We were more than satisfied with BIS. We had high expectations going in and these were more than met. Do you know how much a child's smile after they leave school full of that delectable mixture of joy and knowledge is worth to a parent? Our children thrived thanks to the whole BIS team. Before, during and after the pandemic. There may have been challenges - when is there not! - but what stood out was the pedagogical mission, with dedicated teachers our kids still talk about. BIS's mission is scientifically sound and for those who embrace it, by trusting the process and those who are trained to teach, it is a unique gift to the children. Our two kids adapted really well when they first arrived in Bordeaux and then fit right back into their American school after three years at BIS where they have grown as learners and persons.
C'est aussi une école à taille humaine, où tous les enfants (petits et grands) et l'équipe enseignante se connaissent, s'apprécient et s'entraident, où la communication entre l'équipe et les familles est facile, encouragée et appréciée. Les enfants y apprennent aussi à devenir de véritables citoyens du monde, ce qui se retrouve au quotidien dans les classes mais aussi à travers les voyages pédagogiques et les partenariats de l'école à l'étranger.
Une belle école que nous ne pouvons que recommander!
