In its 20 years of providing good quality education, it has produced alumni who have excelled in their areas of concentration. In 2009, an alumnus graduated Summa Cum Laude from Fort Hays State University in Kansas, the USA with a degree in Accountancy. In 2010, an alumna graduated Cum Laude from Ateneo de Davao University with a degree in Information Technology.

Other alumni have excelled in terms of their academics while earning their degrees at top universities in the Philippines. These universities include the University of the Philippines, De La Salle University (Taft), the University of Santo Tomas, Ateneo de Manila University, MAPUA, and the University of Asia and the Pacific. Several of our students have also been accepted in top universities in Canada, Australia, and the United States. The AAIS prides itself as a school where children learn in a fun, loving, family environment where each child is seen as a special gift from the Almighty and therefore treated with love and respect where parents are considered as partners with the school in their children’s education where teachers are selflessly dedicated in their noble task of shaping young minds and where the school stands as an avenue where children can express themselves as individuals and, in the process, grow up to be contributing members of society. “To be a K-12 business school that develops critical thinkers, problem anticipators and solvers, innovators, responsible global citizens and future leaders who are morally upright.” “Our mission is to serve the Filipino community and the nation through developing globally competent individuals who have love and respect for self, for others, for the country, and, most importantly, for God.” “We believe that a school achieves success when it forms individuals who strive to be of value to the community and the nation and who are zealous for the common good.” “This year, you will see dawn to our beloved AAIS, in terms of its new location, facilities, the betterment of its faculty and their teaching methodologies, and the application of the latest technologies, including this website.

Keep moving on, Lions!”. The school was founded in December 1994 by Dr. Eduardo P. Malagapo, Engr. Bert Javellana and Mr. Felix Frias and was named Philippine Community School in Al-Khobar (PhilCoSa). Its inception happened when the first Philippine school in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia was in deep crisis. Hence, the 1994 Philippine Ambassador, Romulo Espaldon, decided to allow other groups of Filipinos to put up another school. Toward the middle of April 1995, PhiCoSa was organized. The school was established to fulfill its mission. Total Commitment for Total Quality Education. It started its academic year in June 1995 with an initial enrollment of 104 students. In the year 2003 – 2004, the school carried the name “Al-Khobar Asian International School instead of Al-Andalus International School” as directed by the sponsor. The main reason was that the Ministry of Commerce of the Kingdom will not grant a commercial registration for the school if it uses the name Al-Andalus International School since a school with the same name already existed in Riyadh. The MOE did not approve of this and did not issue the renewal of the school’s license. To conform to the MOE’s directive, the school went back to using the name Al-Andalus International School. In 2004, the MOE issued the permanent license from 1424 – 1425 to 1425 – 1426 or two years after which ten years will be issued to AAIS. Furthermore, the Philippine Department of Education issued government permit no. 002, s. 2007 to AAIS on the 15th of March 2007, granting the school the authority to operate Pre-elementary, Elementary, and Secondary courses.

The area is clean and is close to a commercial area. It is not on any main road, therefore, decreasing the chance of traffic accidents. The school is ideally located near the Beachside which is helpful while doing ecosystem studies. The school itself is housed on a 19700 sqm plot of land. Jubail International School opened in 1999. It was originally located on much smaller premises. It was a co-education school system. In 2009 by the decree of the Ministry of Education, it was separated into two separate locations, boys sections' and girls' section. Over time, the number of students increased and the then existing premises was deemed inadequate. The construction of a new building was an essential part of the School's progressive plan and its mission and vision. Hence a new building was constructed just for housing a school, and we moved into it in January 2011. The Jubail International School is housed in a new purpose-built centrally air-conditioned campus. It opened its doors to the students, staff, and parents on the 7th of January, 2011. The students, parents and our staff had been anxiously waiting for the new campus which offers a safe and stimulating environment to about 900 students at present. The school has three sections, with separate entrances, for Boys' Section, Girls' Section and one for Administration Offices. A well-maintained school building is essential for a proper learning environment. Our new building has large, shared workspaces as well as classrooms that are equipped with the latest technology like projectors. The building contains four fully-equipped science laboratories, two rooms for art and design, two clinics, two laboratories for information and computer technology, two spacious libraries, four covered play areas, two canteens, two gymnasiums, and an outside sports area. Thus, the school is purpose-built with teaching and learning concepts in mind. The new building was inspected by the Royal Commission of Jubail and Yanbu, Ministry of Education and Fire & Safety Department, and was found to be meeting, and in some instances exceeding their standards. The girl's gymnasium has a stage, electronically operated stage curtains, and a state-of-the-art music/sound system. It provides the perfect setting for various activities and events like Graduation Ceremonies of Reception and Grade 12. At Jubail International School, the co-operation and camaraderie among all stakeholders have been a significant factor for its success. The responses we have received are very favorable and there is an overwhelmingly positive view of the school premises as parents are very happy with the facilities. The resources and facilities at the school provide ideal learning opportunities to students.

School improvement plans are focused: they help all stakeholders answer the questions “What shall we carry out now?” and “What shall we shelve?” Stakeholders have the reference document to monitor student achievement levels, the school environment, and other things that impact student success and achievement.
