CLASS OF 2011

“God used my time as a student at ICS to deepen my faith and transform my view of what a Christian community could be. It also gave me an appreciation for education in a diverse, international setting. Without the influence and example of such great teachers and mentors who invested in my life during high school, I may have never considered becoming a teacher myself and committing to invest in the lives of students.”
