International Studies Charter School was founded in 2004 by the ministries of education from the French, Italian, and Spanish Consulate in conjunction with Academic Corporation as a continuation of the International Studies programs offered in elementary and middle schools throughout Miami-Dade County.

The essence of International Studies Charter School is captured in our tagline, “A multilingual, multicultural, college preparatory education.” This theme speaks to the great accomplishments of our students and our school within a context that values the importance of balancing academics, athletics and activities, a richly diverse community, and traditional values with progressive approaches.

At International Studies Charter School, we believe this kind of balanced approach creates the ideal environment for our students to succeed and thrive.
