A New High School Physics Lab
A modern learning space that will match our students academic excellence.
Creating a modern learning High School Physics Lab
We are upgrading our Physics Lab to ensure our high-quality teaching and learning of physics principles are matched with a modern learning space.
This includes new equipment, professional lab furniture, and a redesigned space to enhance students’ experiments, simulations, and research projects.

Where We Are Now
Join us in elevating our high-quality, modern teaching of Physics with a state-of-the-art lab where our students can engage in hands-on learning. Donate today!
The funds raised throughout the school year and during ISC Night have exceeded the goal for the High School Physics Lab project. According to the ISC Advancement Policy, the remaining amount will be used to either further enhance this project or be allocated to another Advancement initiative. We will inform our community once a decision is made. The ISC Report will detail the allocation of these donations and their impact on the school.

Scientific Technology
"It's not just about the technology or the physical space. Donations help create an environment where all students can thrive, becoming role models, leaders, and ultimately achieving success in their lives."

A Student and Teacher-Centered Design Process
Here at ISC, we have a special design process that is highly collaborative. Teachers, students, and staff all become part of this process, fostering a sense of belonging and collaboration towards creating a new learning space.
During the planning process for the High School Physics Lab, our high school students (as the primary users of this new learning space) suggested numerous details and improvements to better meet their needs.
Inquiry-Based Learning
Teaching for the Future means actively involving students in the learning process, facilitating genuine connections to the real world through exploration and thought-provoking inquiries.
This approach not only encourages problem-solving but also emphasizes experiential learning, providing students with valuable hands-on experiences that enhance their understanding and skills.
With our donors, we implemented more than 51 projects in 11 years.
We are proud to showcase the continuous progress of our school, made possible by the generosity of our donors.
