Superintendent Welcome Note

Welcome to Stamford American International School!

Dear Community, 

A warm welcome to Stamford American International School, Singapore! As the newly appointed Superintendent this year, I am thrilled to have the opportunity to introduce you to our vibrant and inclusive school community. 

We are an IB World School with more than 3,000 students on two campuses, committed to student well-being. Additionally, we offer 2 pathways: the IB Diploma Programme or an individualized pathway which allows students to choose a combination of subjects from IB, AP, BTEC and Stamford courses to suit their educational preferences and career aspirations.

More than 90 percent of our graduates get into their top two choices for college or university, with students gaining admission to highly competitive institutions in the U.S., Canada, UK, Netherlands, Germany, Japan, Singapore, New Zealand, Australia and more.

Our goal at Stamford American is to promote academic excellence and a deep sense of belonging, and we are committed to empower our students to reach their full potential. Our facilities boast state-of-the-art classrooms, theater, science labs, quiet study spaces, spacious libraries, gyms, pools, and many others. Our teachers thrive in this well-resourced environment and leverage it to promote active learning and holistic development for our students.

Stamford American attracts top-tier teachers through a competitive recruitment process. These are professionals who possess deep knowledge of content and pedagogy, but just as importantly, they know how to build relationships and help students feel safe and valued. In teacher interviews and references, we probe how they show up in the classroom and who they are at their core. 

For our new families joining us, we offer various support services to help ease the transition and ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. From language assistance to cultural student-led groups, we strive to make our school a welcoming place where you and your children can feel at home.

Thank you once again for your interest in our school. Here’s to a successful school year filled with growth, discovery, and endless possibilities!

Matt Mills
