Our Mission: NAIS an accredited American Curriculum School provides a caring, multicultural environment that inspires students to become global minded critical thinkers.
North American International School promotes academic excellence while nurturing young people to become moral and intellectual leaders, people of dignity, integrity, and compassion, who want to make a difference in the world.
We believe that an outstanding education will open many doors for our students. The biggest challenge faced by the educators of today is to prepare students for the challenges of a globalized world. Students of today face a world that continually demands new knowledge and abilities; a world that requires the students to become adaptable, life-long learners in an ever-changing scenario of new skills and competencies. They also need to be good communicators, be able to relate well with other people and to think critically and creatively. NAIS is committed towards imparting these skills. Students not only learn, but they learn how to learn, not just in school but beyond as well.
The school endeavors towards providing holistic and quality education by infusing each and every student with the zeal to be passionate about learning as well as to be engaged and inspired. We want every student to be nurtured into strong, reflective and responsive individuals who are confident and adaptable in meeting the challenges and opportunities of this rapidly changing world. A talented and diverse teaching staff, outstanding facilities and technology, and active and dedicated parents all work in concert to provide our students with an education that paves the way for them to continue their post-secondary education.
Welcome to North American International School, a dynamic and vibrant learning community where students aged three to eighteen are engaged and challenged to reach their individual potential. Our strong belief in the importance of children being happy in order to be truly successful permeates all we do; the broadening of interests and the development of personal qualities is an exceptional feature of school life here at NAIS.
The key element of NAIS’s success hinges on the participation of our parents. As a child’s first teacher, the role that parents play in their child’s development is never underestimated. With our open door policy and extensive programme to maximize parental engagement, you will be kept fully informed on your child’s progress and have opportunities to contribute and participate in your child’s school experience.
This website provides valuable information regarding the opportunities offered to our students and their parents. I encourage students and their parents to take advantage of the various opportunities at our school.
I look forward to another exciting, meaningful, and successful year for everyone that is a part of the NAIS community. Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about our school.
