The International School of San Francisco operates as a dual-language institution in the center of the city, specializing in a bilingual French-English track from preschool through high school. Students at the Oak Campus, which primarily serves the high school, choose between the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma and the French Baccalaureate. The campus includes specialized facilities like the Arts Pavilion for music and film and the Mark Salkind Center for science and design. A standout feature is the Global Travel Program, where students in grades 9 through 11 participate in two-week international learning trips to destinations such as Senegal, Vietnam, and Ecuador. These trips are often part of reciprocal exchanges where students stay with local families to practice language skills in real-world settings. The school also integrates "makerspaces" and a dedicated design lab into its curriculum, allowing students to apply engineering and artistic concepts to physical projects.
