Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at IAS

​The International American School is dedicated to building and nurturing a community that values diversity and compassion, rooted in a strong foundation of integrity. 

We are an international school, with wide range of international and national cultures represented.  A culturally diverse school helps students develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Encountering new and different ideas and perspectives makes students evaluate their viewpoints.

​

Our educational system is academically rigorous and demands high performance, where educators, students and their families are rewarded for their partnership and combined efforts.  Our admissions and student discipline policies reflects this commitment by only seeking and retaining students who not only demonstrate academic excellence but also embody school values, empathy and ethical responsibility.  

We adhere to a policy of nondiscrimination in admissions and educational programs/activities and strive affirmatively to provide equal opportunity for all. We prohibit discrimination against employees, parents or students on the basis of sex, race, color, ethnic or national origin, religion, marital status, disability, genetic information, age, political beliefs, sexual orientation, gender, gender identification, social and family background, linguistic preference, pregnancy, and any other legally prohibited basis.
