CIS MISSION STATEMENT AND PHILOSOPHY<br />
Mission Statement<br />
Our mission is to develop the potential of each student in a stimulating environment of cultural diversity,<br />
academic excellence and mutual respect.<br />
PHILOSOPHY<br />
At <strong>Copenhagen</strong> <strong>International</strong> <strong>School</strong> we endeavor:<br />
• to educate our students in a stimulating environment to the highest possible academic<br />
standards using the <strong>International</strong> Baccalaureate Programs (PYP, MYP, DP).<br />
• to educate world citizens who, celebrating both their shared humanity and cultural<br />
diversity, will shape a more peaceful world.<br />
• to instill respect, tolerance, integrity and compassion; to promote the confidence and<br />
independence to be risk-takers; to create students who are open-minded, questioning<br />
and understanding.<br />
• to be aware of the social and emotional needs of each individual student and work<br />
with the home in a caring atmosp<strong>here</strong>, to provide a sense of stability.<br />
• to inspire creativity in each student in its broadest aspect and help to enlarge the<br />
human spirit both aesthetically and morally.<br />
• to create students who are respectful of, and knowledgeable about, their local and<br />
global environment.<br />
THE IB MISSION AND LEARNER PROFILE<br />
