MISSION

Sharpstown International School is an inclusive community that develops students as lifelong learners, who can adapt to the dynamic landscape of the global marketplace and can live purposefully as caring and principled contributors in an increasingly interconnected world.

VISION

Our vision, as a community, is to be a premier school of choice that prepares and motivates students to thrive in a rapidly changing world by instilling in them critical and creative thinking skills, global mindedness, and a respect for diverse perspectives.

STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY

At SIS, we care for each of our students as individuals with unlimited potential. The SIS community commits to instill in our students the value of hard work, the importance of intellectual pursuits, the necessity of respectful debate, the virtue of critical thinking, and a belief in oneself to accomplish beyond the ordinary.

SIS is committed to IB principles and practices shaping teaching and learning in the school.

Our grade 6 through 12 program of study fosters global understanding through a challenging and rigorous curriculum. We continuously strive to promote leadership, responsibility, and service in our students, our staff, and our community.

SIS offers its students the opportunity to obtain the internationally recognized International Baccalaureate Diploma in addition to their Texas high school diploma.  The two-year Diploma Programme engages students in a challenging curriculum in an interactive way. Through inquiry and investigation, students develop critical thinking skills and hone their analytical abilities.
