School Head Welcome

Dear Parents and Students of IISA,

ICARDA International School Aleppo (IISA) was founded in 1977 by the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA). The school began with only eight students and now the present population is approximately 340 students. Local Syrian and expatriate students comprise about two thirds of the total school population. Located at the present site since 1987, the school shares spacious grounds with the residence of the ICARDA’s Director General and the ICARDA Sports and Social Club.


IISA is fully accredited by the Middle States Associations of Colleges and Schools in the United States. In addition, IISA is proud to become an International Baccalaureate World School by offering the Primary Years Program (PYP) through Grade 5, Middle Years Program (MYP) from Grade 6 – 10 and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program in Grades 11 and 12 (IB). IISA is the only school in Syria with certified IB programs, which offers the IB Diploma.

IISA is an open, warm environment and enjoys a mutually beneficial relationship with all aspects of its community. It is through constant communication and involvement of stakeholders, the needs of students are met with great success.

Please contact me at any time with questions or a request for more information. We welcome new students at any time.

Sincerely,

Shirley A. Davis
Head of School
