OUR APPROACH

In partnership with the Internationals Network for Public Schools, at Queens International Secondary School we believe that it is our collective responsibility to create a heterogeneous and empathetic learning community where the abilities of our Multilingual Learners and their potential for academic and personal achievement are celebrated. Through projects that elevate real world applications and opportunities for career & college exploration, our students are immersed in language rich classrooms that support the deepening of students’ critical thinking skills, the elevation of student voice and engagement in the global society.
