History
SYIS Shenyang International School was founded in 1998 by the International School of China (ISC) with the main purpose of supporting foreign families in China who wanted to give their children an international education in a multi-cultural environment. The school began with only eighteen students and three foreign teachers. Currently, we have more than two hundred and fifty students from over ten different nationalities, and more than thirty foreign teachers.
After being established in Shenyang, the school moved a few times while trying to find a campus that contained the kind of facilities we needed to offer the best international education possible. We have settled in the Dongling District close to the New Hunnan District, where students enjoy the use of many modern educational conveniences, such as our large sports facilities for indoor and outdoor activities, an extensive library for scholastic research, science and technology labs, and other rooms where children can explore and perfect their handcraft abilities. SYIS is also the only school in Shenyang to offer an American curriculum from junior kindergarten through grade twelve and taught solely in English by expatriate teachers. We are happy to share a history not only of hard work, but also of love and passion for the exceptional education that we have been able to provide here in the northeast of China. [2]
