School Life

From Academics to Enrichment

The day to day activities of school life here at AIS is filled with academics, play and many after school activities and events.  In addition, students attend field trips, take part in competitions and explore the arts. 

A Different Kind of Calendar

The school calendar at AIS is a combination of the French school calendar from the French Ministry of Education and an American school calendar.  At AIS, we follow the Round Rock Independent School Districts guide to holidays and school closures. AIS also has five school breaks each year: Fall Break, Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break, Spring Break, and May Break.  During our Fall, Spring and May Breaks, there is a special camp provided at the school at an additional cost for those who enroll.

 Fun is Not Just for Students

AIS holds many events and activities for parents and staff throughout the year.  It all begins with our International Potluck Dinner where parents, teachers, staff and students have the opportunity to try different foods from around the world and get to know one another.  Later there is the Thanksgiving Luncheon, the Parent Breakfast, and the Parent-Staff Social (adults only).  Also, language classes are offered to parents who have interest, and our Halloween Parade has both parents and children partaking in the fun.

Volunteering

There are so many opportunities to give of your time as a parent at AIS, in ways that truly enrich school life.  Through the parent association, L'association de parents d'élèves (APE), you also find many ways to contribute to your child's education.
