Rabat American School

Rabat American School (RAS) is Morocco's capital city's premier American international school, founded in 1962 and serving students from Pre-K through Grade 12. Located in the prestigious Souissi residential district near the royal palace and diplomatic zone, RAS serves the children of American Embassy staff, other diplomatic personnel, international NGO workers, and multinational families posted to Morocco's administrative capital. The school follows an American academic curriculum and offers a comprehensive college preparatory programme with Advanced Placement (AP) courses available to senior students. RAS is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (MSA), one of the USA's most respected regional accrediting bodies. The school's compact, tight-knit community is distinctive in Rabat's international school landscape — providing a family atmosphere and strong relationships between staff, students, and parents. English is the primary language of instruction, with Arabic and French taught as essential local languages. RAS serves a diverse multinational student body with students from over 40 nationalities. The school's 60-year legacy in Rabat, American curriculum, AP programme, and MSA accreditation make it the natural educational choice for US diplomatic and internationally mobile families in Morocco's capital.
