MISSION

Town House International School (T.H.I.S.) nurtures each child’s emerging talents and unique needs in an intimate environment that is challenging yet engaging. We encourage each child to develop at his or her own pace in an international atmosphere. Our program provides a vigorous curriculum which builds confidence and fosters the love of learning.


DIVERSITY

Our school welcomes children from across the city and around the world, encompassing an exceptionally wide variety of national, religious, racial and ethnic backgrounds. Through the interactions of different religious and ethnic backgrounds, students learn to respect and appreciate the dynamics of a multicultural environment. The school celebrates an array of holidays where students together with their families and friends can enjoy special foods and share cultural traditions in the classroom.


PARENT PARTICIPATION

At T.H.I.S. our experienced faculty and staff value the active involvement of our parents. Our partnering approach to education fosters a strong bond between parents, students and teachers. Parents have the opportunity to become involved in the daily academic lives of their children. Chaperoning a class field trip, volunteering to be a guest reader or participating in the many special classroom events are just a few examples of how our parents participate and enjoy their children’s years at T.H.I.S. Our teachers are dedicated to getting to know each child from his/her first day at T.H.I.S. and are available to meet with parents on a regular basis throughout the year.
