Middle School
Middle School at the International School of Riga is a time when our Grades 6-8 students are transitioning from the final years of childhood into the first years of adolescence. This is both an exciting and challenging time for students as they begin to appreciate the many opportunities they have, the increased freedoms they have access to and the associated responsibilities. Throughout this journey their parents and ISR teachers help students acquire the knowledge, skills and attitudes they need to make good choices for themselves for their future.
INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE MIDDLE YEARS PROGRAM
In April 2026 ISR was authorized to teach the IBMYP. This program fosters critical thinking, intercultural understanding, and a holistic approach to learning.

International School of Riga is a Candidate School* for the IB MYP. This school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. These are schools that share a common philosophy—a commitment to high quality, challenging, international education that ISR believes is important for our students. *Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme (DP), or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB and its programmes, visit http://www.ibo.org.
