Welcome to the Middle and High School

Welcome to the AISK Middle/High School! Our division consists of approximately 200 students from over 20 countries around the world. The aim of AISK's middle and high schools is to provide a well-rounded educational experience for the students in an academic yet caring environment.

We have an outstanding faculty and staff in our school. With years of experience working with students and in many cases advanced degrees in their subject areas, AISK teachers offer a challenging and supportive environment that promotes student learning.

The AISK secondary education is based on the American educational model, with courses and standards aligned with those found in the United States. All courses in grades 6-10 are linked to either AERO or national subject-specific standards. AISK uses computer-based adaptive testing called MAP to measure learning throughout the year, and teachers are trained to use this data to help each student improve.

In grades 11 and 12 we offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma and Diploma Courses programs to all students, providing an internationally recognized examination-based curriculum for entry into universities and colleges around the globe. AISK has been an IB World School since 2008.

AISK is committed to ensuring that our students have the technology skills they will need in their adult lives. To this end we run a 1:1 laptop program using the Apple MacBook platform. Every student has their own machine and constant access to a vast amount of information throughout our wireless campus. Technology is an integral part of our curriculum and instruction, not an add-on, and students learn appropriate uses of technology every single day.

Whether you are a student, parent or educator, explore what AISK has to offer. If you have any questions about the AISK experience, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards,
Josh Centra
MS/HS Principal
