Since 1990, the International School of Portland has offered full language and cultural immersion in a warm, loving environment that encourages curiosity and kindness. • One of only two schools in the United States to provide three full language immersion programs under one roof. • Home to the longest-running Chinese immersion program in the Pacific Northwest. • Only program in the USA to offer Japanese immersion combined with IB PYP. • Dynamic English program We are proud to be an International Baccalaureate World School! For three decades, we’ve been helping to guide and prepare today’s generation of explorers for the challenges of tomorrow. We’re the only school in the U.S. to provide full immersion in Mandarin, Japanese, or Spanish under one roof. We were the Pacific Northwest's first International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB PYP) school, which promotes strategic thinking skills and hands-on engagement, rather than memorization and passive learning. This instills a true love of learning within children, and equips them to pursue knowledge throughout life. Our small classes and international faculty provide a warm, multicultural environment that engages students in academics and the arts. We educate approximately 350 students in preschool through 5th grade.
