What our Parents & Students say

“There are so many opportunities for my kids – the Math Olympiads, MUN and recently they hosted NASA, along with concerts, drama productions and much more. The teachers, leadership and superintendent to the principal’s of each division and the deputies are so approachable. They will stop and have a conversation about my children at any point. I know most people say, the teachers really care about the children but I have never seen the level of genuine concern and care for their wellbeing as I have in the leadership in this school.”

Mangla Sachdev

“A wonderful environment coupled with a dedicated team of infant care teachers give Elisha the perfect conditions to grow up. She has settled in so well since she arrived at the center at the age of 5 months much to the efforts by all the teachers. Heartfelt appreciation for all the love and care showered on our little angel.”

Joshua Wong

“I will miss the community that SAIS provides, such as an open and international environment, in which all students and teachers are welcomed. A life lesson that I will carry with me is that Stamford taught me to be open-minded and has given me a great appreciation for many cultures. Having the option of multiple academic pathways, provided me with the choice of what I want to study, which allowed me to choose which pathway would be best for the countries that I was planning on applying for universities.”

Jenna Leas

“I joined Stamford American back in 2013, as a first grader. Stamford American has definitely helped me to build the skills I need to be successful in the future. The teachers have guided us to be confident decision-makers and equipped us with the knowledge we need to head off onto our different paths.

The inclusive environment Stamford American offers has taught me to be more understanding and open-minded about people’s differences and to appreciate the value they bring to our lives.

I have made friends from all over the world and they have had a huge impact on me during my time here. They have taught me to be resilient with the many departures, and the importance of communication to stay in touch. I will definitely miss coming to school and seeing everyone each day.”

“I came to Stamford American in 2011, while I was in Kindergarten 2. I attended the old campus, next to the current Early Learning Village.

My time at Stamford American has made me become the person I am today. It has helped shape my ambitions and future pathways. The classes I’ve taken have made me want to be a designer, and the experiences have helped shape my personality.

My number-one memory would definitely have to be our Grade 11 camp. It was the funniest and most impactful one yet, as we did activities like bike riding, camping on the beach, hiking up to a cave, and visiting the fishing village. I was able to make new friends and learn about Sam Roi Yot in Thailand.

I will miss seeing all my friends during class. I will also miss the facilities here, like the Innovation Center’s resources.

While it feels great to be graduating, I do feel emotional as I’ve been here for such a long time. I have made many memories. I will also miss all the familiar faces, students and staff. Stamford American is such an open community with many kind people.”

Aisha Acquaah-Harrison, Class of 2024

“I wasn’t really able to speak English when I first started in third grade, so it was definitely a scary but exciting experience coming to an international school. The diversity at Stamford American has made me more open-minded and accepting of other people.

The number one thing I will remember is playing for the volleyball, rugby and softball teams at SEASAC. It really impacted me- developing school spirit, taking risks, challenging myself, and building character. It was really cool that my friends and I, of different nationalities, represented our countries, but at the same time worked together to compete as one Stamford American team.

In my 10 years here, it was never the same, transitioning through Elementary, Middle and High school, and meeting and saying goodbye to so many people.

If I had to tell my third-grade self one thing, it would probably be that engagement goes a long way. Back in third grade, I was quite introverted because of the language barrier. Surrounding myself with native English speakers helped me develop my English fluency and gave me so many opportunities.

I’ll be going to Keio University, studying business and economics. I’m quite sad about leaving, as I’ve been here for most of my life. I will definitely miss being at Stamford American!
