Document Request Procedures for Summer Programs and Transferring Schools

If you are thinking about applying to a summer program or might be transferring schools, please see your counselor first to learn about the procedures in place.  

 

If teacher recommendations/evaluations are required, all documents will go through the counseling office. Please see your counselor before speaking with teachers.

 

Please note that ISB will support 2 summer program applications at one time and 7 transfer school applications at one time.  See your counselor for information and next steps.

 

As mentioned in the High School assembly four weeks ago, requests should be submitted to your counselor at least four school weeks before the deadline to ensure that all documents arrive to the program/school on time.
