About this school
Singapore American School (SAS) was founded in 1956 by a group of American parents and opened with 105 students in colonial bungalows. It has since moved through four campuses and is a non-profit institution offering an American education with an international perspective. More than 24,000 students have graduated since it opened.
The school is organised in four divisions:
- Early Learning Center (preschool), with a Reggio-inspired approach
- Elementary School, including a Chinese immersion option and STEAM
- Middle School
- High School, with an Advanced Studies programme of more than 20 Advanced Placement (AP) courses and more than 20 Advanced Topics courses, plus partnerships with Syracuse University and the University of South Carolina
SAS reports student results at the 97th percentile or higher worldwide in all MAP test subjects, and graduates attend more than 675 colleges and universities. The 36-acre Woodlands campus includes a 2-acre rainforest, robotics and art suites, theatres, athletics facilities and a 50-metre pool. Students can choose from more than 300 clubs, service groups and activities and compete in the IASAS athletics and arts conference.
