The KIS Attributes

At Kwajen International School (KIS), we are dedicated to nurturing well-rounded, future-ready graduates through six core attributes that define our educational mission. These attributes not only shape academic success but also foster personal growth and a commitment to societal contribution. Each year, our school community focuses collectively on one attribute, ensuring its principles resonate across all aspects of school life.

To deepen this commitment, every student is assigned to a house that embodies one specific attribute as its central theme. This structure ensures that these values are not just taught but actively practiced and celebrated, creating a vibrant, value-driven environment.

By fostering critical thinking, promoting social responsibility, nurturing international-mindedness, instilling discipline, honing effective communication skills, and inspiring creativity, we shape graduates who are equipped to thrive in a complex, interconnected world. These attributes empower KIS students to face challenges with resilience and innovation, make meaningful contributions to their communities, and embrace opportunities with confidence.

This holistic approach reflects our unwavering commitment to preparing students for a dynamic global landscape, grounded in excellence and enriched by purpose.

Here are seven attributes a Kwajen International School (KIS) learner must embody:
