The American International School
of Muscat (TAISM) pursues academic excellence for
students in the international community through an American-based
education that develops ethical, responsible, and globally conscious
life-long learners.
The following
core beliefs are the foundation of TAISM’s educational program:
- The
purpose of education is to enable all students to develop their
intellectual, emotional, social, and physical potential to the fullest.
- A
liberal arts education is best suited to providing students with an
understanding of humankind’s intellectual traditions and
accomplishments, strengthening their powers of thought, judgment, and
aesthetic appreciation, and preparing them for responsible citizenship.
- All
students are capable of achieving academic success. Therefore, within
the framework of the school’s standards, teachers adapt their
educational practices to the needs of students.
- A
close relationship among students, parents, faculty, and administrators
enhances the educational process.
-
TAISM’s location in the Sultanate of Oman offers unique and invaluable
learning opportunities for all members of the school community.
