San Antonio's Premier Private International School

PK3 through 5th grade language immersion education

Setting Children Up for Success

The International School of San Antonio offers students comprehensive language immersion education from preschool through elementary school. We introduce children to rigorous global academic standards within a multicultural environment. Native-speaking teachers immerse students in Mandarin Chinese, French, or Spanish from the moment they walk through our doors. Where they go from here, they go with confidence.

From our Parents

“The convenience of having language education and preschool in one place makes our lives so much easier!”
ISSA Parent
“Luken really enjoyed the French camps, particularly the teachers and staff that made him feel welcome and safe.
ISSA Parent
“Enrolled our three year old in the Chinese Immersion program and he’s been absolutely loving going to “school.” Teachers and admin are attentive and dedicated. I love that they send photos throughout the day through an app. We can’t wait to enroll our youngest when he is old enough.”
Sien C.
“We love how attentive and responsive the teachers and staff are. Most importantly, our 3yo absolutely LOVES going to school. He's making friends, learning a new language, and we always receive photo and video updates on his progress throughout the day. It has been a wonderful experience!.”
ISSA Parent
“One of the things I love about the school is the availability of multiple languages, which I believe is unique in San Antonio. My daughter does Spanish, with Mandarin Chinese as her third language (they have French also). There’s a good teacher-to-student ratio so the kids get a lot of attention.”
ISSA Parent
“My daughter is going on her second year attending ISSA. And the growth that she has shown not only in learning a new language, but in her independence and confidence aswell, it's something I am so thankful for. ”
Clarissa H.
“This is a fantastic school. My son has thrived since coming to this school a few months ago. His Spanish is improving, as well as his motor skills with drawing and pre-writing. He brings home the best art projects. The daily pictures and videos show how excited he is to be there and how much he is concentrating on his work. I love that the school also offers a mini-festival on one Saturday each month. We love this school and he's definitely staying for elementary school.”
ISSA Parent
“My hope for my three children is that they grow up to be model global citizens. In being a global citizen, I feel that it is important that our children get introduced to as many languages as possible. Sending my second child to the International School of San Antonio (ISSA) was one of the best decisions I made. At ISSA, the teachers, administrators, and students created a nurturing environment that enabled him to read, speak, and write in both French and English.”
ISSA Parent
“My 4 year old had never been in a school setting before, but thanks to ISSA’s amazing summer camps, he has absolutely thrived and developed a love for learning. He’s thrilled to start PreK in their language immersion program."
Andrea F.
“It’s an amazing school with small class sizes, attentive teachers & staff, engaging curriculum, & daily updates. He’s become more outgoing & inquisitive & looks forward to school every day. He’s made wonderful friends & we’ve had the privilege of meeting such great families!"
ISSA Parent
“The language immersion, small teacher to student ratios and small group/interactive learning can't be beat. My children get very little Mandarin at home but it's been amazing to see their confidence and use grow in the last few years, especially with writing!"
Kate H.
“It still amazes me that he can read, write, and speak French when no one in our family is fluent. He looks forward to school every day. "
Amy B.
“This is a great school, small class sizes and Spanish immersion to allow learning of a second language. Already starting to read syllables and writing. Definitely recommend anyone looking for a all school with student focus."
P. Gutz
“My daughter went from a shy pandemic baby to a total chatterbox. The teachers go out of their way to make learning fun — she's curious and never views learning as a chore."
Gita W.
