Core Values
International Education Corrales International School introduces students to the world's cultural heritage through a rigorous curriculum, international in its approach to people, values, and skills. Commitment to intensive language learning is fundamental to the program.
Global Citizenship
CIS believes that global citizenship requires engagement with diverse cultural perspectives. The school strives to instill in students a commitment to active service and a sense of responsibility for local, national, and world communities.
Respect
Every human being is valuable and deserves respect. We believe that understanding others promotes respect and that the best way to understand others is by listening and learning to see the world from another's point of view. Since each language reflects the values, history, and way of thinking for those who speak it, learning new languages is a particularly effective means of understanding others, and speaking their language is a powerful statement of respect for them.
Joy of Learning
We strive to create an environment ideally suited to promote the growth of the mind; rich in intellectual stimulation and promoting a sense of wonder, curiosity, and motivation for exploration that will prepare the students as life-long learners.
Connection with Nature
We are a part of nature. Caring for ourselves means caring for nature. Corrales International School empowers students to create a future with respect for the earth and all beings.
