The American International School Kuwait (AISK) is a private independent day school serving students from pre-kindergarten through grade twelve. AISK is overseen by a Board of Owners that operates similarly to that of an American School Board. AISK is an International Baccalaureate (IB) Continuum School that is fully authorized for the Primary Years (PYP), Middle Years (MYP) and Diploma (DP) Programmes. At AISK, students are at the center and teaching and learning and are seen as pivotal to the growth and development of students, faculty, and the AISK community. The educational side of the organization is divided into three divisions; Elementary (PK-4), Middle (5-8) and High School (9-12), and accommodates leadership and teaching teams within and across those divisions. AISK was reaccredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA) in 2013 which was reaffirmed in May 2017. As an IB Continuum School, all three IB Programmes were reauthorized in the spring of 2017. The business side of the organization includes finances, admissions, and human resources. The Superintendent, the Board of Owners, and the Business Manager work closely together to ensure that the needs of the student are best being met within both sides of the organization.
