Community

For over six decades AISL has nurtured a warm and inclusive community of students, faculty, parents, and alumni. Our students currently represent 46 nationalities, and the school promotes an inclusive environment with dignity, respect, and tolerance. The AISL Alumni Relations program was established in 2015 to connect former students, faculty, and parents; alumni events have included local and international gatherings and career-related activities.

Parent-Teacher Association

AISL parents join the Parent Association, led by the AISL PTO. The AISL PTO helps organize community-wide celebrations such as Nigerian Culture Day, International Day, Thanksgiving, Chinese New Year, and Eid. Parents also serve as guest speakers in classrooms across grade levels and act as real-world learning partners to classroom learning.
