American International School of Lusaka

Bio

Founded in 1986, the American International School of Lusaka (AISL) is an independent co-educational day school that welcomes children from 3 to 18 years of age. With a student body of approximately 580 students, the school is fully accredited internationally by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools (US) and the Council of International Schools (UK). The school attracts students from a wide range of nationalities, including approximately 35% European, 24% North and South American, 33% African, and 8% Australasian. The international nature at AISL is reflected in the school's curriculum and programs.

AISL is one of a handful of schools in Africa authorized to deliver all three of the International Baccalaureate (IB) programs: the Primary Years Program (PYP), the Middle Years Program (MYP), and the International Baccalaureate Diploma.

Throughout its academic and extracurricular programs, AISL specifically nurture students' innate creative drive, inspiring them to explore the inviting world of artistic expression. Through music, the visual arts, drama, and other mediums, students produce art that reinforces learning, introduces beauty and meaning into their world, and brings our community together.

Music at AISL explores thinking, expressing and creating music using voice and some instruments including keyboard, recorder, percussion, guitar and the xylophone. Students focus to develop critical listening skills, knowledge and understanding of music theory, and an understanding of cultural contexts of different types of music in order to become well- rounded musicians.
