Frankfurt International School (FIS) is an independent, co-educational day school, which offers an exceptional educational program from First Steps (age 3) through Grade 12 for students of all nationalities. Our mission is to be the leading culturally diverse and family-oriented school with English as the principal language of instruction. We inspire young individuals to develop their intellect, creativity and character to become independent, adaptable, socially responsible and internationally minded citizens, by ensuring a dynamic, inquiry-driven education of the highest standard. The curriculum is international, centered on the programs of the International Baccalaureate with strong emphasis on academic rigor and preparation for university studies, and the development of leadership skills and positive character attributes. German is part of the curriculum for all students and an immersion program is offered at certain grade levels. French and Spanish are offered as foreign languages starting in Grade 6. A first-language (mother tongue) program is also offered in Dutch, Japanese, Korean and Swedish. English-as-a-Second-Language is offered in all grades with basic proficiency levels expected in the upper grades. Numerous co-curricular activities are available in drama, music, arts, literary activities and sports. The School is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). FIS requires candidates to apply for each specific open position through our application portal under htpp://www.fis.edu/page.cfm?p=1277 . This allows us to learn more about your candidacy and to ensure we can keep candidates informed during the process. We do not require additional confidential reference forms. We will contact references once we identify candidates who experience and expertise aligns with our needs.

When we had a teacher decide to take another job in mid-July, we were left with few options. Historically, it was a tough position to fill. Within 24 hours of posting the position on Schrole, we were able to offer a contract to a more-qualified educator.
