Children’s International School is a full day preschool with locations in Arlington and Alexandria, Virginia.  We focus on Learning through Play and the Reggio Emilia approach.  We value holistic learning that addresses the whole child –the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional aspects of child development.  We promote students’ natural curiosity and creativity by encouraging them to be active participants in their learning. The focus is on sharing experiences, learning together, and building knowledge through exploration, investigation, and curiosity.  We believe that the early years are a critical time in a person’s development and should be regarded with the utmost respect.

We take pride in our dedicated, experienced, and skilled staff who are passionate about fostering a nurturing and engaging learning environment for your child. Our team, comprised of highly qualified educators, genuinely loves working with children and excels at helping each child reach their full potential. They go above and beyond to create a safe, positive, and happy environment where young minds can flourish.​​​
