Bangkok, Thailand – June 13, 2024 —

KIS International School proudly celebrates its 25th anniversary, marking a quarter-century of educational excellence, community building, and inspiring individual growth. Since its founding, KIS has been committed to fostering a nurturing environment where students are empowered to reach their highest potential, both academically and personally.

As we reflect on our journey, we honor the KIS family—students, parents, alumni, staff, and supporters—whose dedication and passion have been the bedrock of our success. Over the years, KIS has grown from a small, visionary institution into a thriving community known for its innovative approach to education and its unwavering commitment to developing well-rounded individuals.

Celebrating the Class of 2024

We are thrilled to announce that the Class of 2024 has achieved a historic milestone, graduating with the highest number of predicted perfect IB scores in the history of KIS. This outstanding achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and resilience of our students and the exceptional support from our teachers and staff.

Our talented graduates have received an incredible 709 offers from 23 countries worldwide. These include offers from top-ranked universities worldwide: University College London (UCL), McGill University, the National University of Singapore, and the University of Manchester, to name a few. Additionally, our students received multiple scholarship awards exceeding 26 Million US dollars with an average scholarship award per offer of nearly USD$ 60,000. Top destinations include the US, UK, Canada, Australia, the Netherlands, Thailand, Switzerland, Hong Kong, and Germany. 

Expanding Horizons: Future Plans

In August 2024, KIS will inaugurate its state-of-the-art, purpose-built second campus, further expanding our capacity to provide a top-tier educational experience with remarkable facilities including a boarding village for our growing international student body. This expansion and new addition is part of our ongoing commitment to offering cutting-edge learning environments that inspire creativity and innovation.

Additionally, KIS is excited to launch new sports scholarships, starting in August 2024, which will provide student-athletes with unprecedented opportunities to study at our institution and further develop their sportsmanship and training. These scholarships underscore our dedication to nurturing talent in all its forms, ensuring that every student can pursue their passions and excel both in and out of the classroom.

Summer Camps and Model Congress

KIS continues to diversify its offerings with a variety of summer programs designed to enrich our students’ educational experiences. In the summer of 2024, we will host summer camps and the prestigious Harvard Model Congress camps, providing students with unique opportunities to develop their skills, engage in collaborative learning, and gain global perspectives.

A Vision for the Future

The Bangkok Campus Facilities Master Plan outlines a bold vision for the future, with significant investments in infrastructure and technology to support our educational mission. This plan includes enhancements to our existing facilities and the development of new spaces designed to foster collaborative learning and community engagement and is scheduled to commence in 2024 and continue until anticipated completion in 2027.

Leadership and Vision

Dr. Carolyn Mason Parker, in her first year as Head of School, has been instrumental in guiding KIS through this milestone year. Reflecting on our 25-year journey and looking to the future, Dr. Carolyn shares her vision: “As we celebrate 25 years of KIS, we honor our past and look forward to an even brighter future. Our commitment to excellence, innovation, and community remains steadfast. Together, we will continue to inspire and empower the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and change-makers.”
