We invite and open our school to a student body composed primarily of bicultural students, native English-speaking students, returnees and special needs students. Classes are taught in English.

Accredited through our partner schools, Stanford University and Laurel Springs School in the State of California, USA, our students complete a program and graduate with an American diploma, enabling them to easily pursue university education anywhere in the world.

KAIS International School strives to create a learning environment and educational community centered around the individual. We implore our students daily to create, on an academic, physical, social, and creative basis, as we believe that this creation is the root of both educational and personal growth. We incorporate this philosophy into our school by creating an environment and curriculum in which students themselves control many aspects of their learning environment under the mentorship of our unparalleled teachers, choose their own electives, work at their own pace, undertake multi-term projects, and take responsibility for their education.
