"We are thrilled to be recognized in such an important category. This is a testament to the work our teachers and staff have put in to provide the skills and opportunities for students to have voice and choice in their learning, as well as engage deeply in personal development and community service." - Lorne Schmidt, TIS Head of School.

In addition to the awards, two of our primary school teachers presented at the 21 CLHK 2025 Conference, sharing their insights on critical topics, including "Using Transparency as a Tool to Build Elementary Students’ AIQ."; Their participation underscores TIS's commitment to professional development and thought leadership in education.

"We are honoured to have such qualified and passionate educators at our school", Lorne Schmidt added. "Their contributions not only enhance our school's reputation, but also enrich the learning experiences of our students."

TIS is committed to cultivating a culture of excellence and innovation. These recent accolades further affirm our mission to equip our students not only to meet the challenges of tomorrow but to thrive in an ever-evolving world.
