About this school
Surabaya Intercultural School (SIS) opened in 1971 under the sponsorship of the American Consulate with 24 students, to give families access to an internationally based education. In 1985 it became the first school in Surabaya accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), and in 1995 it moved to its current 50,000 m² campus in Citra Raya, West Surabaya. Since 2000 it has also been allowed to enrol Indonesian students, and its community now represents more than 25 nationalities.
SIS covers early childhood, elementary, middle and high school. It has been authorised since 2012 to offer the IB Primary Years Programme from EC3 to Grade 5, and high school students can take the College Board Advanced Placement (AP) programme. Classes are small, typically around 10 students, and student-support specialists help those learning in English as an additional language.
SIS is a non-profit school owned by its parent community through the Yayasan Surabaya International School. The campus has three science labs, a computer lab, a gymnasium, an Olympic-sized pool, two art rooms, a ceramics room, a soccer field and green space.
