Letter from the Principal

Welcome to MIS.

I wish to extend a heartfelt welcome to the Metropolitan International School. I am very pleased to introduce myself as Principal, and it is my privilege to be entrusted with the role of leading such a remarkable school at the heart of our wonderful community.

With our mission statement of cultivating empathy, a passion for the world and the love of challenge, it is our shared values of acceptance and dedication for high standards for our learners, that make our school something special. Through the synergy of so many dedicated people we are all working together towards our common goals centered around the children, and celebrating who they are, and what they can do.

It has been my honour to have seen our school grow in size and pupil intake, and to become so successful across its many departments and age groups. I also so please with our growth as a prominent center of learning across the greater local and global pedagogic community. During my seven years at the school so far, it has been wonderful to see so many pupils leave us to continue their learning in some great universities in German and across the world, and across such a range of subject areas. It fills me with pride when we are able to welcome them back after completing their degrees, and have them speak to our students now, sharing their memories of the school and allowing them to give back and inspire the next generation of learners.

As well as our dedication to high levels of academic interaction and exploration, we seek to have a shared place of understanding, love, safety and celebration. Still after many years with the school, I am still overwhelmed with the tenacity of our students, their kindness towards each other and the wonderful things they are capable of.

Thank you for your interest in our school, and I hope to meet you here in the future. If you have any question, or would like any further information, please do not hesitate to ask.

Yours sincerely,
Laurent Cassell
Principal
