Message from the Superintendent

Welcome to the ISG learning community!

We are a multi-cultural organization of accredited international schools committed to providing the highest quality of American and British based education.

Our success is a partnership between teachers who love their work, administrators who listen, students who strive to do their best every day and parental support they receive.

Established in 1962, ISG is one of the oldest and best established expatriate school organizations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In 2012, ISG will celebrate our 50th Anniversary!

Our schools are accredited by the Middle States Association (MSA) of Colleges and Schools and the Council of International Schools (CIS). Categorized into 3 distinct curricular divisions, ISG’s distinct schools offer a U.S. model curriculum, the British National curriculum, or the innovative International Primary Curriculum.

Academic programs accommodate every level of elementary and secondary education beginning with
Pre-reception or Pre-KG and culminating in full High School and Key Stage Four programs. In September 2011, ISG celebrated the opening of the Dhahran Baccalaureate Centre, welcoming our first cohort of IB Diploma Programme students.

At ISG, excellence is reflected in how we do what we do, our commitment to learning, and the success of our students. Our qualified educators, exceptional academic and co-curricular and support programs help ensure that our students “aspire to their fullest potential and are capable of a lifetime of high achievement, driven by integrity, acceptance of others and personal ambition.”

Representing more than 40 nationalities, our students and alumni are consistently welcomed by renowned universities around the world and recognized as inclusive, respectful and motivated life-long learners.

ISG’s college preparatory programs and global language programs are instructed by highly qualified educators who are supported by the latest in educational materials and technology. Our enthusiastic and dedicated professionals are innovative, collaborative and focused on improving student learning. The commitment of our staff to continuous professional development ensures that our students receive the best education possible.

Visit any of our campuses to experience the sense of belonging, empowerment and community that evolves from the instinctive support staff and administrators hold for the values of our students’ families. ISG offers an open and nurturing, multi-cultural environment. Our diverse culture and global awareness is further enriched by the unique cultural experiences of our host country.

Thank you for your interest in ISG. Please contact us and come visit our schools if you can. We look forward to sharing the ISG spirit with you.

Remember to “honor, value and celebrate.”

Warmest regards,

Norma Hudson
ISG District Superintendent
