Graduation day




Elise graduated and earned two great awards as follows: She received "The Arthur Denyer Award" which is given in memory of the founder of ISB, this award is presented to the student who has most consistently demonstrated genuine internationalism in attitude and action, exemplifying most clearly the global spirit of the International School of Brussels.

Then she was given "The Charles Besterman Award". Charles Besterman was a gifted actor and director, and one of the founders of the American Theatre Company in Brussels. This award is presented in his memory for outstanding achievement and is given to a talented and gifted drama student. We were so proud of her and so happy for her to recieve another incredible award. She really made her mark in this school in the short two years that she was here. Congrats to Elise!
