HISTORY
The Al Danah International School (ADIS) started in 1995 as a nursery school. The increasing demand of parents for the education of their children led to the establishment of the kindergarten, preparatory, elementary and high school levels.
Maintaining a learning center then was not easy. Various problems and difficulties were encountered but the support of the parents, the inspiration given by the children, and desire of the school administration to serve, were more than enough to sustain what was started.
Now, under the supervision of the Department of Education-Philippines and the Ministry of Education of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, ADIS was granted the necessary permits to operate internationally as a Philippine School Overseas catering to the needs of Filipino and foreign students. ADIS aims to meet the demand of a quality education. As such, competent and licensed teaching staff were hired from the Philippines.
The school believes that the secret of success in learning is attributed to an effective program of instruction as well as competent and committed teachers who will implement the program. The ADIS ensures that its faculty is fully equipped with the right training and academic qualifications to be able to deliver a teaching program that will help prepare students to become globally competitive.
Indeed, the teaching and learning in the ADIS redounds to one ultimate objective – to see every child realize the value of education. This can make him/her a good, useful, concerned, educated and fulfilled citizen not only of his country but of this world. In this school, we make sure that the pupils, students, faculty and staff are contented and happy.
