About

The Rocky Mountain International Student Program welcomes students from around the world to its public schools in Revelstoke, Golden, Invermere, Kimberley, Cranbrook, Fernie, Sparwood, Burns Lake and Vanderhoof in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.

The RMISP region of BC is home to some of the best outdoor recreation opportunities in North America. The area has become one of Canada's top golf destinations and is also well known for adventure sports like kayaking, mountain biking, river rafting, hiking, and rock climbing. It is also most famous for its five ski resorts, three of which rank in the top ten in North America. 

International students may attend a public secondary school (typically grades 8-12) or middle school (grades 7-9) in one of our communities. Monthly trips and activities are included at no extra charge.
