At the International School of Riga, we are an inclusive learning community that strives to empower, inspire and challenge learners, ensuring the success of every child.

Opening in 1995, we have seen our program offerings grow and develop and our student numbers steadily rise and now confidently look to the future with great enthusiasm. The ISR learning journey, builds upon past successes and develops in our students a global awareness and understanding, motivating them to contribute positively to both the local and global communities.

Our IB PYP, IMYC, IGCSE and IB DP programs blend the learning with a deep-rooted respect to local culture and tradition, establishing a challenging and well rounded-academic curriculum, where the arts, student activities and athletics are also highly valued. It is with purpose and pride that we reach out into our neighbourhoods, nurturing and developing crucial community bonds and embracing the Latvian Heart.

Among my goals at ISR this year is to build open and honest two-way communication with our community, to maintain balanced academic rigour in our teaching and learning and to assure the best environment for maintaining student safety and well-being, particularly in these challenging times.

Should you visit the campuses, you will undoubtedly be struck by the warmth and professionalism of the exceptional teaching and support staff.

I encourage you to take the time to explore our website, follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and to discover for yourself this truly extraordinary school.

I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible whenever you are on one of the campuses. My door is always open.
