Introduction to IIS boarding
The mission of Indus International School is to provide for an overall excellence and whole personality development that excites and stimulates students to discover more about the world around them- and more importantly to become Leaders and life long learners within an international context. In order to accomplish this, a certain degree of discipline, and mainly self discipline, is expected. This code of conduct attempts to define parameters, the observance of which requires students to assume a responsible role in the boarding community. Indus has students from various cultures and we at Indus stress on being sensitive to the values and customs of India and respect other cultures as well. We also expect mutual respect among all in the Indus family.
