La Scuola International School

This school has been claimed by the school or a school representative.

Founded in 2002, La Scuola International School – the only Reggio Emilia inspired, International Baccalaureate (IB) and Italian language immersion school in the world – is serving the Bay Area with two San Francisco campuses (Preschool - Grade 8), and one new campus in Silicon Valley (Preschool - Grade 1). Our mission is to inspire brave learners to shape the future. Every day, it’s the students at La Scuola who ask challenging questions and lead their learning across languages, across cultures, and across subjects.

Our motto is Nothing Without Joy so our spaces are designed to inspire creativity and curiosity. Our multicultural faculty and families are the foundation of our school experience. Children learn in English, Spanish and Italian, because we know that being multilingual has a significant impact on educational success, attention, decision-making, and overall happiness. Many families don't speak Italian or Spanish at home; it does not stop their children from becoming fluent.
