What "BoBae" Means at WZIS

At Weihai Zhongshi International School (WZIS), we believe that every member of our school community is invaluable. To reflect this deeply held belief, we use the term "BoBae" when referring to our students. "BoBae" is a Korean word that translates to "treasure" in English, symbolizing the immense value and potential we see in each individual at our school.

"BoBae" encapsulates more than just a word—it embodies our commitment to nurturing and cherishing each student as a unique and precious part of our community. This term reflects the respect, care, and dedication we invest in our students, ensuring they are supported not only academically but also emotionally and socially.

At WZIS, our mission is to empower every BoBae to explore their passions, embrace diversity, and grow into leaders who will make a positive impact on the world. By using "BoBae," we constantly remind ourselves and our students of their intrinsic worth and the important role they play in our school’s vibrant and inclusive culture.

As you navigate our site and learn more about WZIS, you will see "BoBae" used in place of "student." This choice is intentional, reflecting the unique and treasured place our students hold within the WZIS family. We invite you to embrace this term as part of understanding who we are as a school and how we strive to uplift and inspire every individual in our care.
