"Mi marido y yo estamos muy satisfechos de haber
elegido AIS para la educación de nuestros hijos. La adquisición del idioma
francés ha sido sorprendentemente fácil para los niños y el ambiente
multicultural al que han estado expuestos durante estos años sumamente
enriquecedor. Aunque Isabel, nuestra hija mayor, ya terminó el 5 curso (CM), aún
tenemos a Andrès (CE2) and Marta (CM) en la escuela y estamos muy ilusionados
porque Rafa, de 18 meses, seguirá los pasos de sus hermanos en un futuro próximo
y podrá disfrutar de un programa educativo único en Austin."
"My husband and I are very satisfied to have
selected AIS for the education of our children. French language acquisition has
been surprisingly easy for the children, and the multicultural environment to
which they have been exposed throughout these years has been extremely
enriching. While Isabel, our oldest daughter, already completed 5th Grade, Andres
and Marta are still in school; we are hoping that Rafa, now 18 months, will
follow in the steps of his siblings in the near future, so that he can benefit
from an education that is unique in Austin."

"Our daughter Margarita has attended the summer
program at the Austin International School for the last three years and we are
very pleased with the results. Spanish is the native language of her mom, but
the
excellent approach of her teacher this summer has made her more willing and more
comfortable to use it in daily conversations. Similarly, she is being gradually
introduced to the French language through songs, games and attractive and
age-appropriate techniques and has been learning the basics. Most importantly,
she is learning to value people from different backgrounds and cultures. We
intend to continue this unique multicultural exposure during her summer months."
Desirée Pallais and Glenn Downing
"Our son enjoyed the friendships, crafts, field
trips, and most of all, the wonderful teachers he had at camp. We spent our
summer in Austin specifically to send him to camp!"

"I have my son and daughter enrolled in CE1 (2nd
grade), we started in PS
when they were just 2.5 years old. My children are progressing at a phenomenal
rate, socially, developmentally and with age appropriate skills. The language
acquisition is so easy for them at this age that I am truly amazed. At a family
gathering recently, my Spanish speaking aunts and uncles were surprised and so
pleased that they were able to communicate with my children. Of course I
mentioned the AIS and they were asking why there weren't more schools like that
around. Sharyl and I feel so lucky to have found the AIS."
Sharyl & Roger Giles
"Our two children, who are quite different in
temperament and learning style, have both thrived at Austin International
School. At AIS we have found a wonderful and rare combination: a challenging
curriculum which promotes excellence, and a warm, loving atmosphere which
nurtures young people. We deeply appreciate Austin International School, and we
will do all we can to support its growth."
Heather Hinton and Philip May
"Despite the fact that I live walking distance from an exemplary public
elementary school [and don’t rank in a high tax bracket], I continue to send my
daughters to AIS because the elite education promised is truly delivered.
Amazing results are achieved in a nurturing way that is actually FUN for the
children! After nearly three years, I’m still pleasantly surprised every single
time I enter the school: the faculty and staff are happy and professional, the
lunchtime and playground environments are safe, and the students learn perfect
French painlessly."
Dixie Hornby
"Before we ever had kids, we dreamed of one day giving them the priceless
gift of multi-lingual education and fluency. AIS is a vital part of that dream
coming true for our, now, five children! The AIS community has blessed our
children with an awareness of global cultures and languages unlike any other
environment we could provide for them here in Austin. We are very thankful for
its important and unique service to the greater Austin community."
