ISP is one of the best things about living in Tucson! Both of my children have gone here, and I couldn't be happier. The staff are incredibly kind, experienced, and knowledgeable. I've always felt safe leaving my children in their hands. The director is also a wonderful person who cares about what she does and makes sure that the school is up to date on all the latest guidelines. Their prices are very reasonable, especially considering it's a bilingual/multilingual school, with a little garden, lots of outdoor time, and highly qualified staff.

International School for Peace is a great school with a great Spanish Immersion program. I have 2 children at the school and am amazed daily at the Spanish they learn and teach me. The class sizes are small and the staff is very supportive. I would recommend anyone to bring their child here. "
