ISR offers a rigorous academic program that is based on the International Baccalaureate (IB) curriculum, and is accredited by the Council of International Schools (CIS).

The American International School of Rome (AISR) is another excellent international school in Rome.

AISR is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA) and the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). The school also offers a wide range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art. The John Cabot University (JCU) is a great bilingual school in Rome. It is an American university offering a wide range of undergraduate and graduate programs in English and Italian. JCU is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) and the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research (MIUR). The university also offers a wide range of extracurricular activities, including sports, music, and art," commented one expat when asked about in Rome.

"I definitely recommend this school and believe that the academic level continues to rise with the appointment recently of a new head of school. The school is well run and financially stable. It's a good idea to have your child visit if possible, especially if you seek a boarding situation. There are several other good options for high school, but St. Stephen's and Marymount are the ones closest to the historic center, St. Stephen's having the most convenient location within walking distance," explained one expat in Rome, Italy with kids at St. Stephen's School.
