International School of Arizona

Opening Doors to Success in a Constantly Changing World

The International School of Arizona offers French & Spanish language immersion programs that begin at 18 months and continue through 8th grade. 

ISA is entering it's 27th year in service to the community of Arizona. ISA launched in 1998 with 14 students and has grown to nearly 380 students. 

Our three schools at ISA are the Early School (Pre-K 1—Kindergarten), the Lower School (grades 1—5), and the Middle School (grades 6—8). Each school offers small class sizes and two immersion language tracks: French and Spanish. Our students just don’t learn a language, they learn IN their chosen language.  We like to say that at approximately 3rd grade, students are proficient (read, write, speak) in both English and their chosen track language of  Spanish or French.  At 4th grade, the opposite language is introduced with the goal of having the ability to converse in that 3rd language. Depending on the students ability for language learning, by 8th grade they could be multilingual in English, French and Spanish.

Our community is made up of diverse yet like-minded, multicultural parents who demand high academic standards and understand that the great gift of language leads to academic excellence.
