About

We nurture our students to become fully functional in both English and their home language, Spanish. They will graduate with the tools necessary to compete in the 21st century. We believe our students are assets to the community and will serve as role models who respect and are proud of their own culture as well as the culture of others. The International School for Liberal Arts (ISLA) is designed to foster success for all students so that they graduate prepared for college and careers.
