FUEL EXCELLENCE – TODAY!

Contribute to IS Student Success

Donate Here: Fall Fundraiser

Our ISPTSA funding, supported by parents like you, helps make excellence possible at International School. We are only at 50% of our annual fall fundraising goal.

PTSA funds enrich your students' learning, such as science materials, French language magazines, music materials and competition registrations, social studies magazine subscriptions, library collections, school enhancements, choir robes, instrument repairs, and more. Traditional experiences like Focus Week, HS Retreat, MS Retreat, and Senior Celebration rely on PTSA funding, which keeps direct costs to students down.

We need your support to help ISPTSA continue to fund these programs - and enrich your child's school experience. Each and every student benefits from our ISPTSA. Thank you for your generous support!
Donate Here!

For questions, please email Melissa Richardson, VP of Fundraising.
