International Community School is where faith, family, and academic excellence come together. Through our unique hybrid learning model, we partner with parents to develop students who are prepared to thrive academically, grow in character, and make a meaningful impact in the world.
Education is strongest when families, teachers, and the community work together. ICS equips parents, partners with families, and connects students with learning opportunities beyond the classroom.
ICS will educate and equip students to bring Christ to the world by engaging culture biblically with their hearts, minds, and hands.
ICS exists to prepare students to become learners and leaders through the strengths of a common Christian faith, family engagement, and a challenging learning environment.
Every subject is taught through a biblical worldview that helps students grow in wisdom and faith.
Parents play an essential role in their child’s education. We equip families to learn alongside us.
Strong character provides the foundation for meaningful learning and responsible leadership.
Students are encouraged to ask questions, think deeply, and pursue truth with curiosity and confidence.
Learning is designed to match each stage of development, helping students build understanding and confidence over time.
Education comes alive when students serve others and apply what they’ve learned beyond the classroom.
We prepare students to serve God and others with excellence in every calling.

To find out more about how International Community School can meet your family’s educational needs, please attend one of our Informational Meetings and campus tours. These one-hour meetings are a mandatory first step for enrollment. Our Chief Administrator will thoroughly explain all of the unique components of the school. To honor the time and space of all in attendance, these meetings are for adults only. We do request that you arrange childcare for your children. Please note that grade levels may reach maximum capacity prior to each Informational Meeting.
To RSVP to our upcoming Informational Meeting please fill out the questionnaire below
These meetings are held throughout the school year and are a mandatory first step toward involvement in any International Community School program. In an effort to honor everyone in attendance, children are not allowed to attend.
Pick up a New Family Enrollment Packet from the office, complete and return with applicable registration fees.
All registration fees are nonrefundable and nontransferable.
A representative from the school office will call to set up a time for your 45-minute on-campus family interview. We’d like to meet your entire family and have you meet us!
Following the family interview, an academic evaluation will be necessary for class placement in the 1st through 11th grades. All students entering pre-kindergarten and kindergarten will take the Gesell Test to determine developmental readiness. Fees are due at time of testing, unless you are receiving the Pre-Kindergarten Bright Beginnings Scholarship.
If your student is in grades 9-12, the High School Administrative Assistant will call to schedule a meeting with the High School Administrator to write a four-year graduation plan following the family interview. This meeting does not guarantee acceptance.
If it is on or after July 31st, it’s time to begin paying tuition for the coming school year. After the withdrawal deadline in May you are committed to paying the full year’s tuition.
Make sure your students medical forms are up-to-date and are turned in to the school office prior to your student starting school. We will need the Florida Certification of Immunization Form DH 680 or Religious Exemption Form DH 681, the original DH 3040 School Entry Health Exam form (current exam within 12 months) and a copy of the birth certificate.
You will receive a class textbook list and uniform information to make your purchases. Delaying this step may mean your child will not have the appropriate books and uniforms for the first day of classes. Please allow at least four weeks for uniform and curriculum orders.
New Family Orientation is a vital, mandatory step in enrolling at ICS and takes place in June. Parent and Student Orientations occur the week before school begins and are a time of training and preparation for the new school year. Refer to the ICS calendar for specific orientation dates.
Parents have to complete the required Christian parenting course (PK-5th) or parenting book with questions (6th-12th) by the end of the first semester of enrollment. Contact the Registrar for details.
International Community School has national accreditation through Christian Schools International (CSI) and regional accreditation through Cognia (SACS CASI) and is a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ASCI).
Education at ICS provides one of the most vital ingredients in a successful learning program – community. Through our regular parent meetings, parent partnerships, and shared values, you will be surrounded by a community of people who are working and praying alongside you to help accomplish your educational goals for your child.
Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade academics combine a regular schedule of classes taught by professional educators with alternate home education days. Curriculum and lesson plans are set by the classroom teacher, giving you the opportunity to be involved directly in your child’s education without the direct responsibility of planning your curriculum choices and your home education days.
Academic classes are held Tuesdays and Thursdays for PK-4 through 3rd grade students. Our Friday enrichment program, E-Zone, is optional for these students.
Students in 4th through 8th grade attend academic classes on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Our Friday enrichment program, E-Zone, is mandatory for these students.
High School students meet on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays in a university-style program that includes both core academics and electives. These students also enjoy opportunities for dual enrollment at several local colleges.
We are called international because we believe that our students should be able to reflect the heart and character of Christ everyday and everywhere. In addition to academic challenges and extracurricular development, your child will benefit from a broad-based enrichment of a global worldview including:
A respect for other cultures and the critical thinking needed to engage those who are different
Global Emphasis in service-learning partnerships
Overseas learning experiences through mission trips
The Scriptures – We believe that God inspired all the words of the Bible without error in the original writings. The Bible constitutes the only infallible and sufficient rule of faith and practice. We accept the Bible, including the 39 books of the Old Testament and the 27 books of the New Testament, as the written Word of God. The Bible is an essential and infallible record of God’s self-disclosure to mankind.
God – We believe that there is but one living and true God, perfect in all His attributes, one in essence, eternally existing in three persons – Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ – We believe in the full deity of Christ, His virgin birth, His real humanity, His sinless life, His substitutionary death, His bodily resurrection, His ascension into heaven, His present ministry as high priest and His future personal return to this earth.
The Holy Spirit – We believe in the full deity of the Holy Spirit, who convicts sinners and regenerates those who believe in Christ. He also indwells, sanctifies, instructs, and empowers believers for service, and seals them unto the day of redemption. We believe that every believer is indwelt and baptized by the Spirit at the time of salvation. We believe being filled with the Spirit or walking in the Spirit is living in the conscious presence of the Lord Jesus Christ, letting His mind, through the Word, dominate everything that is thought and done.
Man – We believe that God created all things as described in Genesis. We believe that the first man, Adam, sinned, bringing spiritual death to all mankind, who therefore stand condemned, making the new birth absolutely necessary.
Salvation – We believe that salvation is wholly of God by grace on the basis of the redemption of Jesus Christ, the merit of His shed blood, and not on the basis of human merit or works. God gives eternal life to those who repent of their sins, and put their faith in Christ alone, justifying them instantaneously by the blood of Christ and imputing His righteousness to them.
The Church – We believe in the universal church to which all believers belong. We believe in the importance of the local church, which is made up of believers who gather for worship, fellowship, and teaching. We believe in the responsibility of the church to fulfill the Great Commission of Christ, preaching the gospel to all nations.
The Future – We believe in the eternal existence of the soul, resurrection of the body, eternal blessedness of believers, and eternal punishment of unbelievers.
Christian Living – We believe we are called to be salt and light. We believe as Christians we are called to reclaim His world and to be agents of renewal and restoration. Parents are given the responsibility of raising and training their children in the Christian faith. We believe that the Family unit is designed by God and that the Creator’s intent for human sexuality finds its fulfillment between a man and a woman within the bond of a marriage covenant.
We ask that members of our administration, faculty, and staff teach and proclaim only those doctrines in agreement with our Statement of Faith. We desire to glorify God by being zealous about the things that truly build up the body of Christ and clearly communicate the gospel of Christ, speaking the truth in love.
