MIIS proudly celebrates a remarkable achievement as four of our Middle School students emerged as the Global Champion Team in the World History Division of the Harvard Crimson Global Quiz Bowl, one of the most prestigious international academic competitions for young scholars.
This year’s competition brought together over 2,000 participants, representing 35+ countries and 300+ schools from around the world. Our MIIS team not only rose to the challenge—they topped the global rankings and secured their place as world champions.
Adding to this accomplishment, the team was extended a special honor: an invitation to the in-person awarding ceremony at Harvard University in 2026, a testament to their academic excellence, dedication, and global representation.
