Head of School

A Message from the Head of School

CIS welcomes families seeking rigorous academics, strong values, and a supportive international environment. Our goal is to help young people grow into thoughtful, principled, and capable citizens ready for university and life.

The school combines academic ambition with pastoral care, mentoring, and a calm campus culture that encourages inquiry, service, and steady discipline.

Within our classrooms and across campus life, we work intentionally to ensure that each learner feels known, challenged, and supported. We believe that strong relationships between students, teachers, and families create the foundation for lasting academic and personal growth.

We also value the habits that help students flourish over time: curiosity, consistency, kindness, and responsibility. These qualities shape how we learn together and help our young people develop the confidence to contribute meaningfully in school and beyond.

Mrs. Goreth Nahimana Head of School

Chief Executive Officer

We take pride in the journey we share and look forward with great anticipation to the future we are building together. At CIS, excellence is cultivated, values are lived, and aspirations are transformed into lasting achievement.
