Due to the uncertainty around the pandemic, The International School of Minnesota, will be providing parents a choice of how their child will learn for the 2020-2021 school year:
- On-Campus Instruction: Traditional, on-campus instruction with enhanced safety measures
- Online Learning: Teacher-led live streamed instruction
We are committed to ensuring students receive a safe and consistent education- online or in person. If required to move to remote learning, the school will follow State and/or Federal guidelines. We are fully prepared to transition to online learning or to follow a hybrid format if necessary.
