The school needs the support and the dedicated efforts of all stakeholders, including parents, staff, administrators, and the community. We should all work together as partners to take AISJ to a new level of excellence under the leadership of our new Superintendent, Dr. Mark English.
By working together, we are sure that our school will continue to be one of the best American International Schools.

Believes education is the basic right of every person and our school should reflect the democratic principals of our Country and that the US education system is one of the best in the world. One of the main reasons that our system works is that we allow students to think, comprehend, critique and judge scientific facts and tolerate their logical conclusions instead of just mandating them to memorize without questioning facts. I look forward to the challenge of helping to establish this system here in Jeddah. To provide quality education of the mind, body and soul of our students, our future |
