Mountain View Campus
GISSV Mountain View:
Preschool – Kindergarten – Grade 1-12
Thank you for your interest in GISSV.
Welcome to GISSV's Mountain View campus! Our school is situated in a prime location adjacent to Whisman Park, offering a variety of outdoor recreational activities and facilities for students to enjoy. We provide an outstanding academic program for students from preschool to high school, as well as a Saturday School program open to students of all ages.
We pride ourselves in our truly international outlook and welcome families from all cultural and language backgrounds. For children who enter our program with little or no knowledge of German or English, we offer strong language learning support in both DaZ (German as a 2nd language) and ESL (English as a 2nd language).
