Ekamai International School (EIS) is a Christian, co‑educational international school in central‑east Bangkok, serving students from Pre‑K to Grade 12, with over 33 nationalities represented and approximately 77 % Thai families. Founded in 1946 and relocated to its current Watthana District campus in 1957, it sits on Sukhumvit 63 (Ekkamai) near the BTS Ekkamai station and the Eastern Bus Terminal, a well‑connected urban neighbourhood with cafés, shopping and transit links. EIS follows a US curriculum with Advanced Placement (AP) options in high school, and provides instruction in English as well as Thai language & culture, Japanese, Spanish, French, German, and Mandarin. A distinctive feature is its Pathfinder programme for Grades 5–8 students, which engages them in camping, nature hikes and leadership workshops as part of a global Adventist youth tradition. With accreditation by WASC and AAA, the school combines religious studies, a weekly chapel, and a supportive community grounded in spiritual values.
