Activities

At ICSU, we believe that a truly enriching education extends beyond the classroom. Our vibrant extracurricular activities and diverse student programs are designed to spark curiosity, cultivate new skills, and foster holistic development. We offer a wide variety of school activities to satisfy diverse student interests, from arts and music clubs to academic enrichment programs and leadership opportunities.

We are dedicated to nurturing each child's passions and talents, alongside their intellectual growth. Engaging in these after-school activities and student life programs prepares our students for real-world realities and successful futures, building essential skills like teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and creativity.

Arts

ICSU provides students with abundant opportunities to explore and refine their artistic talents. Our engaging arts curriculum includes classes designed to immerse students in a wide range of visual and performing arts.

Athletics

At International Christian School Uijeongbu (ICSU), our athletics program extends beyond competitive sports. Our mission is to cultivate not just physical prowess, but also spiritual depth, Christ-like character, and essential leadership skills within our student-athletes. Through our comprehensive sports programs, we aim to prepare students for a life that honors and exalts God.

Our dedicated coaches at ICSU guide athletes to compete, persevere, function effectively as a team, and ultimately glorify God in all their efforts. While athletic performance is valued, we emphasize that honor and respect are paramount, transcending the outcomes of wins and losses. This dual significance of character education and personal growth makes our athletic program a vital component of a holistic education at ICSU. We offer a variety of team sports and extracurricular sports opportunities, fostering well-rounded students ready for future success.

Technology

At ICSU, we recognize the significance and benefits of technology in modern education. We've implemented a 1:1 technology program, providing every student with a dedicated Chromebook to facilitate an engaging and interactive learning experience.

Our approach to educational technology goes beyond simply replacing traditional tools. We aim to teach students how to strategically leverage digital tools to enhance their learning, fostering deeper academic and intellectual development. Students learn when and why to use technology effectively, expanding their problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

ICSU ensures a robust learning environment with a dependable wireless network offering ample bandwidth for fast, reliable access to essential digital learning resources. Our technology department is committed to providing students with opportunities to utilize advanced tools and expand their digital literacy, preparing them for a technology-driven future.

Spiritual Formation

As a Christian school focused on students’ spiritual formation and their development and growth in Jesus Christ, each of our school divisions (elementary, middle, and high school) has a weekly Chapel service that all students attend.These chapels are coordinated by our school Chaplain and include student-lead praise and worship along with Scripturally-based teaching or preaching.

Bible is a core subject in each of our classes and a biblical worldview is at the heart of the curriculum for all subjects taught at ICSU. Additionally, we hold an annual Spiritual Emphasis Week (SEW) for all of our students and, when time and conditions permit it, we also have yearly spiritual retreats for our secondary students.

Character Development

As a natural extension of our commitment to nurturing students' spiritual formation, we place a strong school-wide emphasis on service to both our local and global community. Our approach to character development is rooted in the school's core values, all of which guide students toward a life of compassion, self-sacrifice, and service to others.

We firmly believe in the importance of stewardship, love, and service. For students pursuing the Honors Diploma, a minimum of 30 hours of community service is required for each year of high school attendance. This commitment reflects our dedication to fostering well-rounded individuals who are prepared to make a positive impact on the world.

Clubs

At ICSU, student clubs and organizations provide dynamic avenues for students to pursue unique interests and passions that extend beyond the traditional academic setting. These diverse extracurricular clubs significantly enhance the overall school experience, actively encourage involvement within the school community, and foster the development of students as proactive initiators and strong leaders.

Many of these valuable student life programs are even student-led, offering invaluable opportunities for participants to grow in organizational and leadership skills. This empowers students to take ownership, develop practical management abilities, and cultivate strong interpersonal skills.

Our offerings cover a wide range of fields, including student government, arts clubs, honor societies, community service initiatives, and many more. Joining an ICSU club is an excellent way for students to explore new skills, build friendships, and contribute meaningfully to our vibrant school environment.
