I am delighted that you are interested in the American International School of Rotterdam and trust that in exploring this website you will might get a sense of the diversity and quality of opportunity that is on offer here. But words and pictures can only do so much. My hope is that you will be persuaded to build on your initial curiosity by visiting us personally to experience at first hand what sets AISR apart.
Our school is one that cares for all - everyone is encouraged to maintain his or her own dignity and support the dignity of others. Our school is one that encourages its pupils to develop not only an academic ambition but also a social ambition, with a sense of personal responsibility towards others, along with a spiritual appreciation of all the world's cultures. Our school encourages its students and community to look outwards so that we can learn how people live and work successfully not only in the Netherlands, nor Europe, nor singularly our country of origin - but globally. Such an outlook fosters true confidence - a confidence that sees change as an opportunity and prepares pupils for the rapidly evolving world that awaits them once they leave our care.
Our children are happy, resilient, well rounded and motivated to learn. Teaching and learning at our school fosters an inclusive, holistic approach to education that totally engages all children and celebrates equality and diversity.
We hope to make all AISR students realize that their motivation is every bit as important as their ability, so that after their time here students will find some truth in the Chinese Proverb, "Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere." Please do arrange an appointment to meet me and discuss your son or daughter personally. We would all be delighted to see you here and offer you a very warm welcome.
