American International School-Salzburg
American International School-Salzburg is one of the best boarding schools in Austria. It is a day and boarding international college preparatory school in Salzburg, Austria. The Middle States Association has accredited the American High School curriculum used at the school.
Together with a high school curriculum (grades 9 through 12) that includes an Advanced Placement program, the school also offers a junior high school program for students in grades 7 and 8. The second week of September to the end of May marks the beginning of the three trimesters that make up the academic year. Along with its summer language program (SILC), the school also runs a summer school program.
The administration, faculty, and resident care staff of American International School-Salzburg oversee and periodically assess the school's curriculum. It fully conforms with the policies and guidelines of the AP program, and its instructional strategies and materials are in line with those of the majority of accredited independent schools in the US and around the world.
The majority of the teaching faculty and resident-care staff at the school are US citizens who speak English as their first language. The language of instruction at the school is English. It should come as no surprise that students take part in a program that will offer them excellent preparation for admission to universities and colleges in North America and around the world, given their background in history and education.
More than 85% of the students at the American International School-Salzburg are enrolled as full- or five-day boarders. All grade levels at the school have residential facilities for boys and girls. Every student floor has a designated residence for the resident staff, who are available for use during all non-academic hours.
There are two single rooms, a few triple rooms, and most of the double rooms on the floors of the girls' dorms. Every room has a shower and bathroom, and the majority have recently undergone renovations. There are two single rooms and an equal number of double and triple rooms in the boys' dorm. The boys' rooms also have an en suite bathroom and shower.
Every student has a set amount of free time during the day, during which they can leave campus (with their parents' consent) and sign out. All students are free to enjoy their time off campus as long as they have fulfilled each of the five basic expectations.
