About WIS
Mission Statement
Wisconsin International School provides a challenging, international curriculum that instills the principles of honesty, self-discipline and fair play. Wisconsin International School develops leaders, inspires learning and encourages responsible global citizenship.
Vision and Philosophy
At the core of Wisconsin International School's value system is a sense of fairness, honesty and responsibility. Our challenging curriculum and supportive learning environment strives to provide developmentally appropriate programs that allow using state of the art technology and the latest studies in early childhood brain research and learning styles between the different genders.
At WIS, we draw strength through diversity. Our aim is to instill a sense of pride in our school, neighborhood, and national community. We embrace the uniqueness and diversity that connect and make us valuable to our community. Our programs provide opportunities for students to value their communities as well as to serve as active members within their communities. We are committed to creating a diverse student body both racially and ethnically and in religious and socioeconomic status.
We believe our partnerships with students, parents, faculty and board members strengthen our mission and develop the whole child. In preserving the integrity of our value system, we strive to strengthen these partnerships by providing opportunities to develop the child's social, emotional, intellectual and physical needs.
Our goal as founding members is to position this school as the unmatched "college prep" elementary/middle school in Brown County. We have identified these key attributes that WIS will offer:
Small Class Sizes
Exceptional Programs
State-of-the-Art Classroom Technology
Welcome diversity
Quality Faculty & Staff
WIS is an independent, college preparatory pre-K through 8th grade school, which will open in the fall of 2008 in West De Pere. Offering an age-appropriate, rigorous curriculum, WIS will develop leaders, inspire active learning and instill the principles of responsible global citizenship. Students will master skills in English, language arts, mathematics, science, history, social sciences, Spanish and Mandarin, physical education and fine arts.
WIS seeks students from diverse socio-economic, ethnic, linguistic and national backgrounds who will benefit from the challenging academic program and who will contribute to the life of the school. Qualified students are admitted at all grade levels, class size permitting. Students of all linguistic backgrounds are considered for admission, although students should be proficient in English.
WIS is the only independently operated school with no religious affiliation in Brown County welcoming students of all ethnic, racial, religious and socio-economic backgrounds.
