Governance
The school is governed by a nine-member Board of Governors, seven of whom are elected for two-year terms by the International Community School Parent Association, the sponsor of the school. One member is appointed by the US Ambassador and another member is appointed by the Board itself. Membership in the Association is automatically conferred on the parents or guardians of children enrolled in the school and professional members of the staff. The By-Laws of the Association can be on the school's web site at the Governance download page. The Board operates within a Policy Governance model based on the work of John Carver.
