Right To Play is an international NGO that uses sport and play to bring health and wellness lessons to children who face unimaginable challenges in the face of war and poverty. Using Right to Play's symbolic Red Ball, CIS students will be linking with their peers in Africa, Asia and the Middle East through RTP's innovative Learning to Play, Playing to Learn curriculum, which fosters cooperation, respect and fair play - the pillars of Olympism.
CIS, a K-12 International Baccalaureate Candidate School, currently offers dual-language programs in English and the choice of Arabic, French, Greek, Mandarin, and Spanish. Located at 4401 Connecticut Avenue, NW in Washington, DC, CIS is an economically, culturally, racially and linguistically diverse school community. CIS' dual-language, international curriculum develops fluency in two or more languages and prepares students for global citizenship.
CIS' mission is to educate young people to develop intellectual capability and creativity, cultivate emotional intelligence and healthy relationships, achieve academic excellence and proficiency in world languages, value cultural diversity, and acquire peacemaking skills.
Coeus provides students with a unique curriculum that transcends the traditional boundaries and expectations of the classroom.

A CIS education also includes innovative features such as Olympism-based athletics and physical education, a Professionals-in-Residence program, and Peace Studies. Exceptionally talented and experienced faculty and staff members collaborate extensively across disciplines and languages to ensure that all students are actively and successfully engaged in meaningful, relevant learning. A Coeus education prepares students to be global citizens and to continue their studies at the best universities worldwide.
