Welcome
Welcome to QSI International School of Tbilisi!
It is an honor and privilege to serve as the Director of QSI International School of Tbilisi and to welcome you to our remarkable school community. Whether you are exploring our school for the first time or have been part of our QSI family for many years, I hope you discover what makes our community such a special place for children to learn, grow, and thrive!
Since 1995, QSI Tbilisi has brought together families from around the world, creating a diverse and welcoming community that celebrates the unique experiences, cultures, and perspectives each individual brings. Today, our school serves approximately 200 students representing more than 30 nationalities, and it is this diversity that strengthens our community and enriches the educational experience for everyone.
At QSI Tbilisi, we believe that a strong sense of belonging is the foundation for meaningful learning. When students know they are accepted, respected, and valued for who they are, they develop the confidence to take risks, embrace challenges, and discover their potential. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where every student feels seen, every voice matters, and every individual has the opportunity to contribute to our community.
Our school is built on meaningful relationships. Students, families, and staff work together to create a culture of trust, kindness, and mutual respect where everyone is encouraged to grow and support one another. We recognize that learning happens best when children feel connected, and we are intentional about fostering a community where every member knows they belong.
As a member of Quality Schools International (QSI), we are guided by the philosophy of Mastery Learning, which recognizes that students learn in different ways and at different rates. Our personalized approach combines high expectations with individualized support, ensuring that every child is empowered to experience success while developing independence, resilience, and a lifelong love of learning.
The QSI Success Orientations are an important part of daily life at our school. Through these shared values, students learn not only to achieve academically but also to become compassionate, responsible, collaborative, and thoughtful individuals who positively impact those around them.
QSI International School of Tbilisi offers a rigorous American curriculum taught in English from Preschool through Secondary School. Fully accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA), our academic program prepares students for success at universities worldwide. Secondary students also have access to Advanced Placement (AP) courses, including the prestigious AP Capstone Diploma Program, providing opportunities to develop advanced research, communication, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
Learning at QSI Tbilisi extends well beyond the classroom. Through athletics, the arts, leadership opportunities, service learning, and a wide variety of extracurricular activities, students discover new interests, build meaningful friendships, and develop the confidence to become engaged members of both our school community and the global community.
As Director, my commitment is to foster a school community where every student, family, and staff member feels welcomed, valued, and connected. I believe that when people experience a genuine sense of belonging, they are inspired to build meaningful relationships, embrace new opportunities, and support one another. Together, we will continue to cultivate an inclusive community where diversity is celebrated, every voice matters, and every student is empowered to thrive both academically and personally.
I invite you to visit our campus, meet our outstanding students and educators, and experience firsthand the welcoming spirit that defines QSI International School of Tbilisi. We look forward to welcoming you into our community!
Sincerely,
Heather Sherwood
Director
