Greetings and welcome to United Nations International School. Every day students and staff from all over the world teach, learn and grow here together. Lessons learned and friendships made are long lasting, as our alumni regularly assure us. And the excitement and stimulation of this international, culturally diverse environment never becomes dulled by familiarity. Day after day, year after year, it remains a fresh experience.
UNIS students are challenged academically, and in all other ways, to become the best they can be. Our modern, bright and spacious school in Manhattan and our smaller "familial" campus in Queens, are both sequestered in lovely locations. The richness of New York City is all around us yet we are removed from the hurly burly of mid-city life.
Inspired by the ideals of the United Nations, our school serves children and youth from the UN community, the diplomatic corps, the non-governmental international sector and local New York families. It is an extraordinary microcosm of a world for which all peace loving people yearn.
In the Web pages which follow, you will find more information about our school and programs we offer and I invite you to learn and examine them for yourself through this electronic medium and to visit me and the rest of the staff, faculty, and students of the school.
Again, welcome to UNIS and our web site.
