Our History
Honoring Our Heritage. Inspiring Bright Futures.
Established in 1981, AISG is the first international school in southern China, and the longest establish non-profit international school in Guangzhou.
We have been part of the Guangzhou community since our founding as an embassy school. What began with seven students from the US Consulate in a room at The Dong Fang Hotel has now grown into a top-tier Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 international school with over 1,000 students and more than 50 nationalities across two vibrant campuses.
AISG's non-profit status enables reinvestment in operations and facilities, ensuring a student-centered focus, investment in top educators, and providing an exceptional learning environment. As the sole non-profit international school in South China, our commitment to students and mission over profit margins makes it a key market differentiator for families seeking a high-quality education.
Throughout our history, we have earned globally recognized accreditations, authorizations, memberships, and alliances that enrich our learning environment, ensure a holistic education, and prepare our students for success in an interconnected world.
