Counseling

“I advocate for each student, knowing the brain works under the supervision of the heart. A child who is emotionally and socially set is in the best state for academic success.” Salli Baker, MS Counselor

FREEDOM FROM CHEMICAL DEPENDENCY: Teenagers today face difficult choices about their futures and lifestyles. Within a metropolis like Bangkok, drugs can be a temptation. At ISB, we help students make the right choice of a drug-free lifestyle with our drug education and drug prevention programs. High-tech drug testing through hair analysis is done both randomly and with cause. ISB is the only international school in Thailand that provides this service for families and students.
