I am close to accepting a job at Beanstalk International School in Beijing. Does anyone know this school and where it is located.
How does it rate among the International Schools?

I happen to know this school but I also know you are a poster with multiple identities posting mock queries!

In the spirit of the IQ of the OP: Yes, I've heard of the school and here are a few particulars:

1. The DOS made the mistake once of trading the school's lovely bovine, Bossy, for a bunch of lima beans. His mother, who worked as an administrative assistant, threw said beans out the window in a fit of rage.

2. There is now a very large, very tall plant growing outside the building.

3. There are often strange noises heard at night coming from the sky. Something about "fi" and "fie" and "blood of Englishmen."

4. At one time a very heavy egg fell from the sky and hit a passer-by on the head, killing her instantly. Someone stole the egg because it seemed to be made of solid gold.
