Welcome to the American International School of Niamey!

Message from Director

We are happy to have you visit our website to learn more about our unique learning community in West Africa.  AISN opened its doors nearly forty years ago in 1983 with a handful of students and grew quickly and moved to our current purpose-built campus in 1986.

AISN has been a fixture in the international community in Niamey and we provide an American curriculum to a diverse group of students from preschool to grade 12.  Our small school of approximately 100 students come from over twenty different countries.  This diversity is our strength and everyone at AISN believes that all students can succeed.

We encourage all our students to take advantage of the opportunities at the school.  We offer a variety of classes and activities including art, music, physical education, French and daily extra-curricular at the school.   Connecting with the community is another strength of AISN and we bring the experts to our school for additional opportunities for students.  We also take our students out into the community for field trips and service learning experiences.

We are accredited by the Middle States Association of Schools from the United States.  AISN is also a member of the Africa International Schools Association.  These relationships are important to our school as we must maintain high standards to be members of both.  We may be small, but we graduate students every year and they are accepted at universities around the world.

AISN is a special place in Niamey, and I encourage you to look through our website and learn more.  We strive daily to create a caring, nurturing, and safe environment for all students.  It is a privilege to be part of the AISN community and I would be happy to show you around our campus or meet you virtually to share all we have to offer.

Sincerely,
Tim Kruger – Director
