KIS International School Honors 25 Years of Exceptional Education Standards

Celebrating its 25th anniversary, KIS International School cements its leadership in Thailand’s international education landscape, consistently helping students secure offers from top academic institutions worldwide.

Bangkok, Thailand – August 28, 2024 —

KIS International School is thrilled to celebrate its 25th anniversary, commemorating twenty-five years of outstanding education, community building, and inspiring individuals.

Khun Pongsak Ruktapongpisal, the founder of KIS International School, shared his journey and the pivotal moments that inspired him to establish the school during his speech and toast at the 25th Year Anniversary Celebration.

“Many have wondered why I, an engineer, contractor, and real estate developer, decided to start KIS. Four key events shaped this decision,” he said.

“The rise of technology in the 1990s underscored the need for an education system that prepares students for the future. I envisioned a school that integrates innovative technologies into its curriculum.”

“Finally, the birth of my twins in 1995 reinforced my determination to create a school that offers the best opportunities and resources, ensuring children can achieve their full potential without needing to study abroad.”

As we look back on our journey, we celebrate the KIS family — students, parents, alumni, staff, and supporters — whose dedication and passion have been the cornerstone of our success. Throughout the years, KIS has evolved from a small, visionary institution into a vibrant community recognized for its innovative educational approach and steadfast commitment to nurturing well-rounded individuals.

Celebrating the Class of 2024

KIS proudly congratulates their Class of 2024 for their outstanding IB Diploma results. KIS successful candidates achieved an average IB score of 35, compared to a world average of around 30, with a highest score of 44 out of 45. KIS students received over 700 offers from 21 countries, including prestigious universities like University College London (UCL), McGill University, and the University of Manchester.

Expanding Horizons: Future Plans

In August 2024, KIS will inaugurate its second campus — KIS International School Reignwood Park — on a 150-rai (60-acre) property within the tranquil Reignwood Park community. This state-of-the-art campus will include exceptional facilities, such as a boarding village, to support our growing international student body and foster creativity and innovation.

Khun Pongsak Ruktapongpisal elaborated on the future of KIS:

“As we look ahead, we are committed to expanding opportunities for our students. Rapid advancements in technology and social media, along with AI, robotics, and drones, are transforming our world. These changes pose critical questions about the education needed for future generations.”
