Extracurricular Activities

Learning experiences beyond the classroom are an essential part of the BIS experience and we believe are even more powerful than classroom learning in a number of ways:

“They are voluntary rather than mandatory; they often involve work that is undertaken collectively rather than individually; they feature opportunities for peer leadership and peer-to-peer learning; they involve dimensions of playfulness; and they are aligned to activities that are valued in broader culture.”
