Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

SIS Medan develops caring, compassionate and concerned individuals imbued with moral values that will enable them to become pro-active  individuals. It aims to bring students to the realities of life and help build a healthy, safe and better world.
All students from Preschool to Junior College are required to complete a given number of hours for community service. Parents are also encouraged to be involved whenever possible.
Activities that will bring about social awareness are often integrated in the school events, students’ interdisciplinary projects ( IDPs) and field trips.
