Harare International School is committed to educating the whole child intellectually, physically and socio-emotionally. We foster freedom of expression, independent thinking, and a sense of personal responsibility in a student-centered learning environment. Our curriculum framework is based on the International Baccalaureate Programs which support the acquisition of knowledge and conceptual understanding through an inquiry-based approach, encouraging the development of problem-solving and critical thinking skills. In addition, we emphasize the effective use of current technologies, the acquisition of multiple languages, creativity through the arts, and the pursuit of a physically active and healthy lifestyle. Our commitment to academic excellence is supported through a strong staff development program. The School admits students regardless of religion, ethnic or national origin, gender, and sexual orientation to all the rights and privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. The School does not discriminate on the basis of religion, ethnic, or national origin, gender, and sexual orientation in administration of its admission policies, educational policies loan programs and athletic or other school-administered programs.
The Harare International School’s Board of Governors has three primary responsibilities:
Provide financial oversight and ensure that the school has the resources it needs to deliver a high quality education to all HIS students; Approve the long-term strategic direction of the school and set policies to support the strategic goals. The Board delegates the implementation of these policies to the Director who is responsible for the administrative operations of our school; To hire, support, and supervise the school’s director. The Board consists of at least seven and up to nine members. Five members are elected by HIS parents to serve two-year terms and must be parents of students currently enrolled at HIS. Two members are appointed by the Embassy of the United States for two-year terms and at least one appointee must be a parent of a student enrolled at HIS. Up to two additional members may be appointed by the Board itself for one-year terms. There are no specific constituencies that are entitled to representation on the Board, however HIS will benefit from board members with skills and experience in areas such as human resources, financial management, accounting, law, public relations, engineering, fundraising, business management, strategic planning, leadership, education, and the local economic context.
