How can I enroll my child at ISLC?
Absolutely, we would love to have your student join ISLC! To start the enrollment process, please give us a call to schedule a tour of our school.

This helps us ensure the safety and well-being of all our students during meal times.
What about summer care?
We offer exciting summer programs that are designed to keep children engaged and entertained while they are out of school. Our summer care is not just about passing the time, but it is a fun-filled experience packed with field trips and activities that your child will love. From trips to the museum and the pool to movie days, we make sure that every day is a new adventure. And don’t worry, we always ensure that the children are well-protected from the sun, so sunscreen is a must. We’re all about having a blast while staying safe!
