Parent Experience

Community, involvement and what it's like to be a parent at this school

History

Retaal International Academy School was established in 2011 in Amman, Jordan. It is governed by a Directing Board, with Prof. Omar Shdaifat serving as Chairman. The school serves students from KG1 through Grade 12 and operates as a mixed-gender, co-educational institution. The leadership emphasizes staff development and governance through the Directing Board, including training initiatives and ongoing efforts to align educational practices with community needs. The school notes collaboration with parents and civil organizations as part of its educational approach.

Community

The school states a shared goal with parents, indicating active parental involvement in its educational mission. Public postings show community events and cultural programming, including Ramadan-themed activities and certificates of appreciation for students. Online learning and digital resources support community engagement and continuity of learning.

Parent-Teacher Association

There is no publicly published information confirming a formal Parent-Teacher Association at Retaal International Academy School. Parent involvement is described in general terms as a shared goal with parents rather than through a named PTA. School governance materials describe collaboration with parents and civil organizations as part of its educational activities. No PTA committees, meetings, or parent volunteer groups are listed on the official pages or common directories. If you want, I can help verify PTA-related details by contacting the school directly.
