VERSO International School

VERSO is the first international school in the world to be conceptually designed by IDEO, the world-famous design and innovation company from San Francisco. Driven by design, VERSO delivers a highly creative, student-centered education where learning is interdisciplinary, project-based, and personalized. VERSO is currently seeking full academic accreditation by the Western Association of School and Colleges (WASC). Moving beyond the traditional ‘one-size-fits-all’ curriculum, VERSO places each student at the center of their own learning. Students are organized into mixed-age groups and work with a team of learning designers. We value curiosity, self-direction, and independence and help students to think like designers. We have redesigned the school day so we can give students more time to dig deep into learning that truly engages them. AGILE LEARNING SPACES Our iconic ‘Loops’ are designed to bring a sense of fun, flow, movement, and interconnectedness to our learning. Traditional classrooms are replaced by contemporary learning spaces that are flexible, agile, and adaptive to the needs of our learners. A PASSIONATE LEARNING DESIGN TEAM We intentionally call our teachers Learning Designers. They are highly-skilled educators who work closely with our students to design deeply engaging learning experiences. CONNECTED TO NATURE Our expansive campus has been designed to complement the rich bio-diversity of its natural surroundings. Working closely with environmental and landscape specialists, VERSO’s  campus is designed to support a thriving eco-system that allows our community to connect with nature on a daily basis to develop a deeper understanding of the natural world and what we all need to do to protect it.
