Djibouti lies at the crossroads of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. It is strategically positioned as a trans-shipment and logistics hub because of its location along the heavily trafficked Red Sea. They have made significant economic strides and are rapidly modernizing its infrastructure (port, airport, roads, train, etc.). However, before ISD opened its doors, they lacked a high quality, English based K-12 school.

To address the educational need for English in Djibouti, the International School of Djibouti (ISD) was opened in September 2016. ISD is being built from the ground up as a high quality, English immersion, internationally accredited school.

Mission: The mission of ISD is to provide students in Djibouti a world class education in English that focuses on discovery, creativity, and problem-solving to develop noble-hearted, global citizens.
