The story

In 1948 ISP (at the time called the English Speaking School of Prague) was founded in the Embassy of the United States, Prague. The school remained in the embassy until 1979, when it moved to a new location known as the "Little Hillside Campus". At the time, the school had 80 students in Pre-Kindergarten through 8th grade. By 1991, with the addition of more students and grade levels, the school was located in three different locations. From 1992 to 1994, 9th-12th grades were added, with the first ISP seniors graduating in 1995. Finally, in 1996, all classes were brought together on the current, custom-built campus in the village of Nebušice, in the Šárka valley, part of the Prague 6 district. In 1998 the school celebrated its fiftieth anniversary with an enrollment of 588 students. Ten years later, in celebration of its 60th anniversary, ISP underwent a 6.5 million euro renovation of the current campus.
