St. John's International School was established in 2010 as a privately-funded institution. It is an extension of the long-standing St. John's Institution, a landmark in Malaysian education since 1904. The school is held by St. John's International Edu Group Sdn. Bhd. and maintains a strong association with the De La Salle Brothers, continuing the Lasallian tradition of education in Malaysia. This connection provides a foundation rooted in a history of educational service.
The school community is made up of students from over 25 different nationalities, creating a diverse cultural environment. SJIS holds regular "Open Day" events for prospective families, which include interactive workshops. These events are designed to be family-friendly and showcase the school's various programs and activities, encouraging participation from both parents and potential students.
