As the 2025-2026 school year is coming to a close, ICSB Upper School students were recognized for their academic achievement during the Academic Awards ceremony.

A total of eighty-five awards in nine categories were presented.

Upper School Principal Mr. Michael Southwell gave his opening remarks, welcoming students, staff, and families. He then proceeded to present the Attendance Awards.

Then, teachers from across the Upper School presented awards in Christian Studies, English, Fine Arts, Foreign Languages, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. Each department took time to recognize students who showed a high level of achievement and passion for their subject throughout the school year.

ICSB's vision is for all of our students to be...

...Equipped to succeed not only in higher education but also to grow into...Active Thinkers who...Think critically and creatively and engage in problem-solving, practice the intellectual virtues of curiosity, tenacity, courage, carefulness, honesty, fair-mindedness, and humility [and who] are well prepared in all academic disciplines.

Thank you to our teachers for equipping our students to be active thinkers and instilling in them a hunger to be lifelong learners. Thank you to all of our students for their hard work. Finally, thank you and congratulations to all award winners for their perseverence, commitment to excellence, and their contributions to a culture of continuous learning in the academic life of our school.
