Leaders in Education
Central to ISP's work is the Deloris A. Spear Center for Excellence in Teaching, which serves as a hub for educational innovation and professional learning in the Pacific Northwest. The Spear Center hosts workshops and conferences featuring world-renowned educators, supporting not only our ISP community but also international educators from the Portland area and beyond.
By providing high-quality professional development opportunities, the Spear Center enhances teaching practices, leading to improved educational outcomes for students within ISP and beyond.
ISP & the Broader Community
The International School of Portland is proud to contribute to the revitalization of downtown Portland through strategic campus developments and community partnerships.
One such initiative, in collaboration with Portland State University (PSU), focuses on enhancing walking and biking access to our campus, providing safer and more sustainable transportation options for students and residents alike. This project not only benefits our school but also contributes to the overall connectivity and accessibility of the downtown area, fostering a more vibrant and inclusive urban environment.
