About Us

Our Story. 

Founded in 1964, the American International School of Lagos (AISL) has grown from just 30 students to a thriving international community representing cultures and perspectives from around the world. More than six decades later, AISL remains committed to providing an exceptional educational experience that prepares students to succeed in an ever-changing global society.

Learning for the Future. 

AISL offers a truly international education grounded in academic excellence, innovation, and belonging. Through a rigorous standards-based curriculum, the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP), and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (DP), students develop the knowledge, skills, and character needed to thrive in university and beyond.

We challenge students to think critically, solve complex problems, communicate effectively, and engage meaningfully with the world around them. Supported by exceptional educators and a caring community, AISL students are empowered to discover their passions, pursue their goals, and soar as globally minded lifelong learners.
