Nagoya International School (NIS) is inviting families in Nagoya and those new to the area to learn more about its welcoming, diverse, and inclusive community. With a focus on challenging students to think creatively and critically, NIS offers a rich learning environment guided by the International Baccalaureate (IB) framework. Prospective parents are encouraged to attend an Open House—either onsite or online—to see firsthand why this institution is uniquely positioned to support each student's journey toward becoming a positive contributor to the global community.
A School Built on Diversity and Growth
Since its founding in 1964, NIS has grown into a dynamic international community that embodies the values of lifelong learning, critical thinking, and creativity. Educators at NIS embrace students' diverse backgrounds, talents, and dreams, working alongside Trustees and Directors to ensure the school's facilities, finances, and programs are aligned to nurture success for every learner.
Fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and the Council of International Schools (CIS), NIS employs the IB programs to help students expand their knowledge, analyze concepts critically, and reflect on their role in the world. While English is the primary medium of instruction, NIS strongly values Japanese language studies, recognizing the importance of immersing students in Japan's local culture and traditions.
Community and Global Impact
Families who join NIS become part of a community that represents a broad spectrum of nationalities, united by the shared belief that students benefit from developing the skills, values, and behaviors needed to thrive in an interconnected world. Graduates of NIS continue to shape communities across the globe, fueled by the education and experiences gained during their years in Nagoya.
Join an Admissions Open House
Throughout the school year, NIS hosts Admissions Open Houses for families exploring educational opportunities for their children. These events cater to different schedules and language preferences, offering both in-person and virtual sessions in English and Japanese. During these events, families can meet passionate educators, tour the campus (if attending in person), learn about the school's unique programs, and discover why NIS is an exceptional choice for children's academic and personal growth.
