Handong International School
Situated on the Handong Global University campus in Pohang, Handong International School is a Christian alternative elementary, middle, and high school that has been accredited by the Korean Ministry of Education. Its mission is to develop students into global citizens, scholars, and character builders with a biblical foundation, all while preparing them to serve as agents of the Kingdom in multicultural settings across the globe.
The goal of Handong International School's curriculum is to prepare students to be global servants and agents of God's kingdom. This curriculum, which consists of course subjects and co-curricular activities, is based on the 3C's in Christ model and incorporates elements of foreign curriculums, the national curriculum of Korea, and its curriculum.
Students and MKs from around the globe coexist in a community in the HIS dorms. Faith Hall, Hope Hall, and Love Hall are the three dorms at Handong International School. Male and female students reside in different buildings or on different floors. A dorm parent shares a floor with roughly twenty students. There are two bunk beds, four desks, and four closets in each shared room for four students.
Living with the students, dorm parents oversee after-school study sessions, give counseling, lead daily devotions, and lead Bible reading sessions. They also offer spiritual guidance. Daily activities include worship, prayer, and devotions. Students are also taught to respect one another, maintain cleanliness in the dorms, and follow dormitory rules.
On Saturdays and holidays, students are permitted to leave the dorm with written permission from their parents. On weekdays, students are generally not allowed to leave campus. Students are only permitted to leave campus with the written consent and verbal affirmation of their dorm parents. Students who visit for the day must return to campus by 7:00 p.m. Students who stay overnight are required to return by 7 PM on the day before classes resume.
