High School is the time when students transition from being kids to becoming young adults. Here at ISoP, our teachers are keenly aware of this critical stage in the development of each child and work together with them to develop skills, understanding, consideration and international mindedness for them to progress through their years in High School enroute to the Diploma Programme.

HS Leadership Team

Mr. Andrzej Michalczyk

High School Principal

“I graduated from Adam Mickiewicz University with a degree in History. I am a veteran educator with 22 years experience as a teacher and 18 years as an IB examiner. Albert Einstein’s words: “I never teach my pupils. I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn,” encompass my teaching philosophy.”

Ms. Ewa Łysiak

High School Vice Principal & DP Coordinator

“I believe that the concept of international mindedness ought to be a fundamental part of any modern-day education. However, it does not happen automatically by learning in a multicultural environment. There is a strong need for all of us to think of intercultural engagement with local and global issues so developing an internationally-minded attitude is at the heart of our program.”

Ms. Agnieszka Hibner

“As your child becomes teenager and begins the journey through Middle and High School, I will be there to assist. Parents will get to know me during the admission process and further on can always count on my help with administrative issues, paper work or any requests concerning their child’s education at ISoP Middle School and High School.”

“Sooner or later most ISoP kids do pass by my office. It might just be a band-aid on a bruise, a runny nose, or a belly ache. I am here to help all students and to provide medical first aid. I am the ISoP Nurse and have seen it all.”
