Beyond Academics - Chamberlain International School


Chamberlain International School is a school of inclusion that works with students with a wide range of academic, cognitive, emotional, and social challenges who are between the ages of 11 and 22. With its trained staff of educators, clinicians, and mental health professionals, the school crafts individualized academic plans to help students graduate with high school diplomas. Working with students who struggle in a traditional high school environment has been the mission of Chamberlain International School since it was founded more than four decades ago.

In each of its nine different dormitory facilities, the school has worked to create a welcoming environment that feels like home. In addition to their academic studies, students are given guidance on how to develop and maintain healthy eating habits. They also participate in athletic and exercise programs that include activities such as hiking, swimming, horseback riding, and rock climbing. Not only that, but students have the opportunity to interact with the community around them, which facilitates the development of healthy social skills. 

In addition to its extracurricular offerings, Chamberlain International School is a candidate school* for the Diploma Programme. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy - a commitment to high quality, challenging, international education that Chamberlain International School believes is important for our students.

*Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted.
