I look back on the 8 years I spent at ISKL with pride and joy. Not only did ISKL provide me with a solid academic foundation for university, it also allowed me to grow up in a thriving international community. My time at ISKL allowed me to grow up to be very well-rounded in all aspects. In addition to preparing me well for my IB and AP Exams, ISKL allowed me to pursue my other interests at the same time with little to no stress and difficulty. Because of the never-ending support from ISKL and their utmost dedication, I am now able to study and swim at the University of Chicago, one of the most prestigious universities in the United States.

ISKL accepts students of all backgrounds, personalities and cultures, which I believe is really the defining aspect of the school. As an international school, ISKL uses an engaging yet challenging education to encourage students to go out and explore – allowing us to truly become global citizens. My high school education is filled with all sorts of experiences and stories that anyone could dream of. When I tell stories of my time in ISKL, my peers in college really can’t believe that an 18-year-old has already experienced so much.

Without a doubt, ISKL has definitely made me into the person I am today. I am truly grateful for my time at ISKL and the school will forever hold a big place in my heart. As a proud graduate of ISKL’s Class of 2017, I thank ISKL for being such a big part of my life.
