At Still I Rise International School – Nairobi, we offer an 8-year program aiming to raise tomorrow’s leaders among today’s most vulnerable by providing the opportunity to achieve the most widely recognized high school diploma in the world: the International Baccalaureate (IB®).

IB-MYP®

The IB-MYP® is a challenging framework that encourages students to make practical connections between their studies and the real world. Currently only 0.1% of the world’s school-aged children can afford an IB education, but at Still I Rise International School – Nairobi we are privileged enough to be the first to offer it to refugee and vulnerable children completely free of charge.
