TEACHING OPPORTUNITIES AT ISG
As you settle into our school community, we understand how important it is for all family members to transition smoothly when relocating. Therefore, we wanted to reach out to our incoming families to share that there are opportunities to get involved, including through teaching opportunities.
We recognize that many of our new families bring a wealth of diverse talents and professional experiences, and we are always keen to connect with passionate and qualified educators.
Please read the full announcements here.

Orientation sessions are designed to help new families feel confident, informed, and ready for the first day of school. Each session will run for approximately two hours and will begin with a brief presentation highlighting key information about our school, programs, and community. Following the presentation, you will be guided on a tour of the campus, giving you and your child the chance to see classrooms, common areas, and important facilities before the school year begins.
During orientation, you will also have the opportunity to meet members of our school leadership team and the admissions office. This is a great time to ask any questions, learn more about school routines, and complete any pending documents to finalize your child’s enrollment. Our goal is to ensure you leave feeling well-prepared and connected, with all your questions answered and a clear picture of the exciting year ahead.
