Hong Kong International School

Hong Kong International School (HKIS) is one of Asia's most respected independent international schools, founded in 1966 under the auspices of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. Located in Tai Tam on the south side of Hong Kong Island, HKIS serves over 2,700 students aged 5 to 18 from more than 50 countries across two campuses — Tai Tam (upper and middle school) and Repulse Bay (lower school). The school follows an American-based curriculum enriched by Advanced Placement (AP) courses and a distinctive Chinese Studies programme. HKIS is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and the Council of International Schools (CIS). Known for its spiritual development programme alongside academic rigour, HKIS cultivates well-rounded, ethical global citizens. Outstanding facilities include a black box theatre, arts studios, gymnasium, and swimming pools. HKIS graduates consistently gain admission to top universities in the United States and around the world, making it a first-choice school for international families in Hong Kong.
