École l'Envol Competitors

Founded in 1964, the International School of Paris (ISP) is the only school in France to offer all major International Baccalaureate programs. The student body comprises over 60 nationalities. The majority of our families are affiliated with multinational companies, government organizations and embassies; however, 11% of our students come from the local French community. Emphasizing individual attention, the class size is limited to approximately 20 students. Classes in art, drama, music and physical education are part of the regular weekly schedule. Numerous after-school activities are available. The school organizes regular field trips, taking full advantage of the rich environment of Paris and France. ISP has three separate campuses in the 16th arrondissement of Paris. The Primary School campus consists of two beautiful townhouses, joined by a playground. The Secondary School campus, just across the river Seine from the Eiffel Tower, includes three main buildings designed to serve the needs of the arts, the sciences, technology, and other academic disciplines. The school also uses local athletic stadiums, soccer fields, indoor gymnasiums, basketball courts and swimming pools to enhance its Physical Education program, and the main drama productions take place in a professional theater.

The European Climate Foundation (ECF) was established in early 2008 as a major philanthropic initiative to help Europe foster the development of a low-carbon society and play an even stronger international leadership role to mitigate climate change.

The Ecole d’Humanité is a bilingual international boarding school situated in the heart of the Swiss Alps. 120 Students and 40 teachers from over 20 different countries live together here in a dynamic community overflowing with academic, artistic, practical, athletic, and social opportunities. We get to know each other from all sides: a math teacher might also be a hike leader, an Ecole family head, a climbing instructor, and the supervisor of a community service group, and will herself experience students in as many roles. Whether modeling projectile motion in a calculus based physics class or performing in the annual Shakespeare play, summiting a 4000 meter peak or hammering red hot iron on a giant anvil, Ecole students actively pursue their passions in a setting that is both challenging and liberating. "The sheer physical beauty of the place, together with an atmosphere fostering cooperation and curiosity, make the Ecole d'Humanité an oasis in an aggressive world. My time at the Ecole better taught me how to play with others and work on my own." Paul Wallfisch, former student, Music Director of the Dortmund City Theater, singer and keyboardist with the band Botanica.
