We appreciate your interest in ISB and look forward to sharing with you who we are and what we do at our rapidly growing school. Our intent is for interested families to visit us and leave us having a thorough understanding of ISB's culture, its curriculum and most importantly, its mission.

Understanding that the process of selecting a school for your child can be a daunting task, our admissions team at ISB will take the time to answer all of your questions and help guide you in your decision making regarding ISB. We want families who are interested in ISB to be be aware that year after year the admission season brings ISB many more applications than we have spaces to offer. We share, with other New York city independent schools, the reality of space limitations.

We encourage you to attend an Open House this fall if ISB is new to you, as this is where you will receive the most comprehensive information about ISB. Please refer to the side bar for more information about our fall Open Houses. Applications for the 2009-2010 school year will be available to download from our website on Tuesday, September 2, 2008. The deadline for applications is Friday, November 21, 2008.

As you embark on this most important search, we hope that we will instill a sense of ease in this season of school decision making.

Best regards,
Delphine Michaud
Director of Admissions
