Kigali International Community School [KICS] is a Christian, non-profit school, founded in 2006, which offers an educational program from kindergarten through grade 12. While prioritizing placement for children of missionaries and Christian cross-cultural workers, KICS affords children of all nationalities an education similar to that offered by schools in the USA.[1]

The mission at KICS is to provide a Christ-centered, U.S. accredited primary and secondary education to children of missionary families - and other international and national children - that challenges students to excel academically and live out a biblical worldview.

The vision of KICS to impact the world for Christ by preparing servant leaders who choose character before career, wisdom beyond scholarship, service above self, and a lifestyle of participation over apathy.

KICS serves over 220 students from around 20 different nationalities and is recognized as a leading international school in Kigali. KICS is a project of U.S. 501(c)3 ROC Partners. [2]

KICS received two international accreditations in 2012. One was from the Association of Christian schools International (ACSI) and the second was from the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA). [3]

Kigali International Community School is located at Caisse Sociale Estates, Gaculiro, BP 6558, Kigali, Rwanda. It has been an Association of Christian Schools International Continuous Member since 2007.[4]
