One Hope International School (OHIS), nestled in Mae Sai near Thailand’s northern border, began welcoming students in September 2019. It delivers a Common Core–based American curriculum taught in English by native speakers.

OHIS serves children aged roughly 3 through elementary levels and will expand its middle school offerings: Grade 8 to follow in August 2026. Beyond that, they plan to open their high school beginning in 2027, starting with Grade 9 and adding grades annually.
