Learning Support Teacher
International Christian School of Lima
School Background
In 2001, a group of missionaries to Peru called upon the Network of International Christian Schools (NICS), to help them create a school that could provide a high quality American education for missionary kids in Lima, Peru. Shortly after, the International Christian School of Lima (ICSLima) opened its doors to 60 students. Since then, ICSLima has grown to serve over 150 students from more than 30 different countries, and has become a choice school for embassy and business families in addition to many missionary families. In September 2024, ICSLima celebrated 23 years of God’s faithfulness and has developed a reputation as “a school that cares for the whole child”. We are so thankful for the work that God has done through ICSLima for so many years and look forward to seeing all the He does in the years to come.
