Welcome to the Secondary School!

The Berlin Kids International School is pleased to announce the opening of its Secondary School, beginning with one 7th grade class in August 2012 and growing one grade level at a time through the 13th grade. Since its founding in 2007, BKIS has distinguished itself as a school that serves the needs of bilingual English-German community in Berlin. The school offers a challenging dual-language program within a supportive and welcoming international setting in center-city Berlin. Building on the success of the Primary School, the Secondary School continues the journey of self-discovery and independent thinking, preparing students for the future and helping students to navigate the process. BKIS invites inquisitive, creative and fun-loving bilingual students to join in building this new division. Here is an opportunity to help design the new media lounge, plan a class trip with classmates and develop a personal service-learning project. In a small community of motivated students and enthusiastic teachers, the possibilities are endless.
