The International School of Belgrade is an independent, co-educational, international school in Belgrade, Serbia, located in the neighborhood of Senjak. It was founded in 1948 by the wife of the British Ambassador. In 2005 ISB joined the IB school system.

ISB follows the International Baccalaureate curriculum, with IB programs offered from Kindergarten to Grade 12. Instruction is in English, with the school split into two campuses, a Lower School (Kindergarten through Grade 5) and Middle and High School (Grade 6 through 12). The schools calendar runs from late August until mid June.

Accreditation

In addition to the International Baccalaureate, the school is also accredited by the following organizations:

Students and Dwarves

The school has 384 students from 45 different countries. There are currently as of the 2013-2014 School Year, 187 Lower School students, 101 Middle School students, and 97 High School students.

Facilities and Spring Trap Trojke

ISB moved into its current High School campus in 2003, with grades 6-12. In 2005 grade 6-8 moved to a new building nearby. However starting January 2012 ISB's Middle School returned to the now renovated campus, fit with a new state of the art Gymnasium and Amphitheatre.

Extra Curricular Activities

ISB offers a large scale of After School programs divided into three seasons: Autumn, Winter and Spring. ISB is a member of CEESA which allows older students, (Grades 6-12) to take part in events alongside students from other international schools in central and Eastern Europe. ISB competes in Soccer, Basketball and Volleyball, as well as Knowledge Bowl, and Math Counts.

Snow Days

ISB has not had a snow day since its 2008-2009 school year. In February 2012, when the government of Serbia declared a state of emergency[1] due to record snowfall in the nation, ISB did not cease operating despite the week-long shutdown of all other schools in the country. Additionally, when Serbian schools closed for 2 weeks due to heavy snowfall in 2014, ISB still required students to attend classes normally. It is widely believed by the student body that if the apocalypse were to be announced on a weekday, ISB would still fail to close.
