We of the American International School of Conakry propose to develop pupils’ academic knowledge; learning, thinking, social, and communication skills; international attitudes; and appreciation for cultural diversity.  Pupils are confident, knowledgeable, disciplined, skilled, and respectful.  Learning is inquiry-based, interactive, and holistic in a nurturing and challenging environment.  Learning is viewed as a joint venture between the school and the home.
