ISF Parent Network

The ISF Parent Network is an organization representing parents of the ISF student body. Coordinated by a four-member elected board, the ISF Parent Network plays an active role in life at ISF. In its central role as a communication facilitator between home and school, the ISF Parent Network meets monthly. The Parent Network provides a supportive, welcoming environment for those ISF families new to the Frankfurt-Rhein-Main area. The ISF Parent Network publishes a quarterly newsletter, sponsors social events for parents and students, communicates regularly with the ISF Director, and contributes actively to the international atmosphere of the school.

ISF employs a full-time nurse for its Health Centre, as well as Personal and Career counsellors. Students have access to all of these services throughout the academic day. Additionally, ISF Advising classes in grades 1-9 meet weekly with the counselors and/or nurse to discuss contemporary themes.

Extended Daycare Program

ISF offers an extended daycare program for Primary students both prior to and following the class day.  This program provides adult supervision of the students in the morning from 8:00 until the start of the school day at 8:20 and from dismissal of the academic day at 15:20 (grades 1-4) or 16:05 (grades 5-6) until 18:00. In the afternoon, students may also be engaged in a variety of other organized activities.

Mother–Tongue Language Support

Mother-tongue support programs for students wishing to maintain their first language while attending ISF may be available as after-school activities.  Taught by qualified mother-tongue language teachers, such programs have previously included French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian, and Greek for primary and secondary students.

School Transportation

Transportation to and from ISF Internationale Schule Frankfurt-Rhein-Main is possible via a number of means. For those opting for public transport within the Frankfurt-Rhein-Main area, the S-Bahn stop (Sindlingen) brings students within a short walk of the campus.

‘Door-To-Door taxi service,’ offering a private taxi service to interested parents, is made available by a private company and provides an alternative to public transportation. A ‘Point-to-Point bus’ service is also available for those families living in areas where there is sufficient demand.

Sodexo

A hot lunch service is available daily for students having purchased tickets in advance. Sodexo, the world’s largest international catering company, provides and serves a well-balanced, nutritious mid-day meal. Parents receive a monthly menu offering three meal choices per day. Sodexo additionally offers Imbiss-style foods from its Kiosk. Visitors, parents and students may purchase food and drink on a cash-basis (€) at set times daily.
