Introduction

Silicon Valley International School (INTL) is a bilingual IB World School serving students from preschool to 12th grade across two campuses: the Cohn Campus in Palo Alto and the Willows Campus in Menlo Park. Formed in 2021 from the merger of Peninsula French-American School and Alto International School, INTL offers the full IB continuum—Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme, and Diploma Programme—alongside bilingual curricula in Mandarin Chinese/English, French/English, and German/English. The Upper School Language Acquisition program provides a second language pathway for 6th–12th grade English-speaking students, culminating in the IB Diploma. The school emphasizes inquiry-based learning, social-emotional development, and a dynamic bilingual approach. Facilities support arts, design thinking, computer science and educational technology, athletics, and extensive after‑school activities. Distinctive programs include Round Square exchanges and international service trips, alongside Duke of Edinburgh's Award opportunities for older students. The campus culture celebrates multilingual collaboration, global citizenship, and hands-on learning across disciplines.
