TIS employs over 120 faculty members from many countries including the United States, Canada, Australia, Europe, Africa and Asia. In April 2013 the Hexi District Public Security Bureau proclaimed TIS the ‘safest unit’ within the Hexi District. Tianjin International School's address is: No. 4-1 Sishui Road, Hexi District, Tianjin, China, 300222. ==Student Life== Students participate in several extracurricular activities, including music bands, clubs and theater programs. For the past two years, students from the honor choir and honor band participated in AMIS Festivals (The Association for Music in International Schools) held in countries such as the United Kingdom, Scotland, United Arab Emirates, Turkey, The Netherlands and China. Elementary students participate in weekly clubs and after-school activities which help them refine skills they have already learned. Clubs include Chinese music, games, art, worship teams and handbells. During the 2012-13 school year, 40% of the secondary students participated in The Model United Nations (MUN) program, which is hosted by TIS. High school students engage as delegates in one conference each semester and are given several choices. They include Fall semester options: THIMUN (The Hague International Model United Nations) in Singapore, or SEOMUN (Seoul Model United Nations) in Seoul. Spring semester options include: CISSMUN (Concordia International School Model United Nations) in Shanghai, or MUNISC (Model United Nations International Schools of China) in Qingdao (a major city in Eastern Shandong province, Eastern China, formerly known as Tsingtao). Middle school MUN students travel to one conference each year at Dulwich College, Beijing. TIS MUN gives students from grades 7 through 12 the opportunity to improve their public speaking and debating skills while traveling throughout Asia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tianjin International School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
