Gabriela
Mother of Isabel (Year 8) and Emilio (Year 9)
“I really think the teachers at the British International School of Houston are a great role model for my kids. I’ve been able to see a big change in both of them – especially the way they express themselves and the way they make their ideas come across. They know how to apply what they’re learning into the world, which for us, was super important.”

Randi
Mother of Graham (Year 2)
“We are so happy that we moved our son to BIS Houston from the local public school. From our first tour, it was clear how much the teachers and staff care about their students and helping each one reach their full potential. They are able to challenge our son where he excels and provide extra support where he struggles. Instead of the pile of worksheets he came home with from his old school, he comes home with stories and songs and projects he is excited to share and a much deeper understanding of the concepts they cover."
